Clutch replacement in AE111 BT

Postby tomo1985 » Tue Jun 20, 2006 11:01 am

Blew my clutch on sunday morning. The box is a 6 speed model. Looking at replacing it asap with something a bit stronger as towing a jet ski cant help the situation. What do you guys use?

I'v never changed a clutch before but im very handy with anything on cars. I've watched afew done so should be sweet.


Whats is the average price for a new clutch?

how did it "blow"
a replacement clutch kit would be best... rember heavyer clutch... more likley to shit sumthen else like the gearbox....

Most kits are around $200, and most of them claim to be abit heavyer than stock

Have fun!!

Engine mounts off, half the front suspension out, under engine support brackets out.

I palmed my g/f's clutch on her 111 off to a work mate (and Im a mechanic) I just couldnt be arsed with a job like that!

It did have super slut suspension though.
