Clutch Replacement

As subject says I will be haveing my clutch changed out failry soon, I will be going with slp clutch and pressure plate. While clutch is being replaced what other nice prevenitive service should be done. I was thinking changing u-joints out, possibly a shifter upgrade at same time. Any other items to check while this is being done?

Take the hydrulic line off that runs between the master cylinder, and the slave cylinder. There is a restrictor inside that needs to be drilled out. Flush the line out, and reinstall. Makes a world of difference. Keeps the clutch from slipping when you start grabbing gears.
