Clutch went

Was cruising around last night and i finally burnt up my clutch at 185k miles. Been quoted $400 to have a new one installed, don't really feel like doing it myself. My neighbors probably weren't too happy with me coming home at 5,000 rpm at 2 am last night. I'm probably going to get it fixed and then turn around and sell it. I don't have time and money to put up with problems anymore. Everytime i fix one another pops up. I just want the damn thing out of my life. Probably going to get me an old truck next.

Re: Clutch went

doing the work yourself would save a lot of money

And start the whole process of fixing things others neglected all over again.

Re: Clutch went

I typically am a do-it-yourselfer but in this case i don't have the time or equipment to do it. The damn thing is too low to the ground to get underneath and i don't want to leave it in my friend's shop(which does have a pit) for more than an hour because his grandpa uses it quite a bit to work on loaders and stuff.

Re: Clutch went

Well, got it replaced for $478.64 today. I just don't have the time or patience to do it myself. It drives pretty nice now though.
