Clutch installation
I'm going to call around tomorrow to see how much putting in a new clutch
will cost me... but I thought I'd post here first to see what some others have paid & what the average cost for INSTALLING is (not for parts + install, but just install). Thanks guys/gals. -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Full Boar turbo mufflers Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors |

Ive had it done at two different shops and each one charged me about $250 for
the labor. -Franklin '96 Cobra |

Wow.. cheap! Question, for a T-45 tranny, do they need to drop the
transmission to replace the clutch?

Yes, they do have to remove the transmission to remove the bell housing and
change the clutch. BTW, lots of shops will not offer you the same warranty on parts and labor when they do not supply the parts! You may want to compare the prices and warranties with that in mind... > wrote in message . com... > Wow.. cheap!

Well, around here... nobody backs up their warranty.. and when they do, it's
for about 30 days. -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Full Boar turbo mufflers Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors "351CJ" > wrote in message news:yROjd.2725$jC5.14@trnddc07... > Yes, they do have to remove the transmission to remove the bell housing and > change the clutch. > > BTW, lots of shops will not offer you the same warranty on parts and labor > when they do not supply the parts! > You may want to compare the prices and warranties with that in mind... > > > wrote in message > . com... > > Wow.. cheap!

Well, I got quoted $550 with tax. This includes "all new" throw-out bearing,
pilot bearing, pressure plate.. resurface flywheel, what not. Not really much competition around here to get prices down, but this place is a real high-quality independent shop. Heard nothing but great stuff about 'em... they are *always* cram packed though. My uncle is pretty good friends w/ the owner so he's squeezing me in this week. -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Full Boar turbo mufflers Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors > wrote in message om... > I'm going to call around tomorrow to see how much putting in a new clutch > will cost me... but I thought I'd post here first to see what some others > have paid & what the average cost for INSTALLING is (not for parts + > install, but just install).

That's sounds like a good price to me. In Los Angeles I was recently quoted
$644.00 parts and labor for a 96GT from a good shop. It included: clutch disk pressure plate T.O bearing pilot bearing rear main seal resurface flywheel labor Marc > wrote in message om... > Well, I got quoted $550 with tax.

I was just going to say to also have the throwout bearing and pilot
bearing replaced, even if it's not needed. While it's open might as well. On Mon, 08 Nov 2004 19:28:52 GMT, > wrote: >Well, I got quoted $550 with tax.

Why not take a weekend and learn to do it yourself? You'll save a butt-load
of money you could spend on a better clutch, some beer, and some munchies. > wrote in message om... > I'm going to call around tomorrow to see how much putting in a new clutch > will cost me... but I thought I'd post here first to see what some others > have paid & what the average cost for INSTALLING is (not for parts + > install, but just install).
