Default Just curious.

Did you do this job by yourself or did you have someone else helping you? I'm just wondering if it can be done with just one person.

Default Yup. Not fun. But it was worth it. The new clutch is a huge improvement.

Default Did you just reassemble with the original flywheel in there or

did you scuff it up a bit or get it resurfaced at a place like Southbend clutch?
