Put the new clutch in yesterday all up and running today, yippie

Hi all. Though I'd share this with you all if you don't want to take your gearbox out of the car to replace the clutch then this is for you, Disconnect battery,Remove valance and exhaust boxes, remove boot floor, remove starter and clutch slave cylinder and gear linkage, (I did undo the cross gate cable at the gearshift which allows the box to move back further) remove cross member, disconnect driveshafts inner only, unbolt brake calibers and tie up out the way, remove discs ( a good time to replace them if needed) support engine,remove caliber brackets, undo gearbox bolts and tug like hell, and then you reached your goal, lots of latex gloves plenty of tea or beer (not recommended) a few plasters then put it all back, I'm not a mechanic but I like to have a go, all the posts on here certainly did help, it took me 8 hours to get the clutch out, not to bad I think, just waiting on the new one to be delivered
