Clutch replacement on these things is a pretty easy job.  All the parts are light weight and easy to access.  If you have some mechanical ability, basic tools and aren't an idiot you should be able to waste a Sunday with it.  Idiots should plan for Monday too.

  It should be noted that it wasn't cheap. What was the labor again? $400?

    hey Simon,

    I brought him the parts the day/night before (disc,
    pressure plate, throw out bearing) and I picked it up
    end of the next day ready to roll.
