Parts install

I have a Ram 402/6130 combo, new slave, and McLeod adj. master. Should I install the slave and master before the clutch? Or should I do it all at once?

Can this all be installed in one day? I have wednesdays off, and every other weekend. I was just curious if I could get it all done on a weds. as I'm not sure if shops are open on weekends to resurface my flywheel. If not, I'm sure I can take a sick day <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I've been reading the install university guide over. Any other pointers/tips? Looks fairly straightforward. Any tips on bleeding?

Re: Parts install

You have to pull the tranny to change the slave, so you should do it all at once. As for whether it can be done in a day, only you know your abilities. It can easily be done in a day. Around here, there are auto parts stores that can resurface flywheels. I've had them resurfaced on Sundays.

Re: Parts install

It takes me around 6-8 hours,start to finish.I also take my time.The only drawback you might have is if you have the flywheel resurfaced.(takes time)

Re: Parts install

Thanks for the replies.

I usually take my time too, following everything step by step (Install University baby! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> ).

I may just put the master in ahead of time to hopefully prolong the life of my stocker a bit longer, since its been acting kind of funky (pedal is real loose(?) when it sits in the heat for awhile, but still engages ok - no slipping).

Thanks again!
