its not too bad of a ride. from watertown/brighton it takes about an hour ten to 20 minutes to get there. he can problably do the clutch in a day. if you go saturday morning you be home by night fall. it sucks you waste a day but you'll have more dinero in the pocket. good luck dennis

TTT, my mech has a 1 month backup and my hookup backed out, so i need a hand (will pay cash) in getting this in asap. heres what i need done:
1) install clutch assembly (pilot bearing, PP, disk)
2) replace rear main seal while we are in there (rather do it when its apart)
3) optional-install my torque arm and driveshaft loop
ill gladly help and a lift would be great. experience is a plus. drop me a message or im/email at irocz88bt@aol.com.
thanks!
