I'm needing to replace the clutch and tranmission in my 91 5sp. 2.8L
Has anyone in here done either of these projects and is this something that I could do with a factory manual and the needed tools.
Let me know, I'd rather do this myself and enjoy the pleasure of cursing at a vehicle while my knuckles get all bloody and then experience the satisfaction of driving this beast for another 10 or 15 years then to pay a mechanic to do it in 10-15 hours and spend over $2,200.
