Need help. C5 clutch install
My buddy has a 97 vette. It's due for a clutch and we've never done a clutch swap in a vette and i've done the search and everything but still can't find a walkthrough or some sort of how to. I've done clutch swap in my camaro but this is completely different. So any help would be appreciated.

tough driveway job! LOL hell ya it is. I did mine in the drive way too a while back with cajondude's instructions and it all went smooth. Next time ill I have to do a clutch job it will be way faster than the first time.

It's not that hard. It's just some work, involved. Takes a couple people, you cant do it by yourself. I've done my clutch 3 times(bad SPEC, BAD torque tube and bad Ram HD) and a buddy's twice all on jackstands. The first time is a bit tricky to do, but after that, it's pretty smooth.

i was wondering how long it will take to swap out the clutch. I will be attempting this in my cousins garage on a lift. I printed out cajundudes instructions to go by. Also were is a good place to get a dte brace?
