Default Time for new clutch

Dropping the tranny and replacing the clutch this weekend. Got a new clutch/flywheel, new slave, and figured I'd go ahead and replace in a new rear main seal. Is there anything else I'm missing that I should go ahead and replace while the transmission is out?

dont forget the pilot bearing, and most people put a new master cylinder in when they do a clutch swap, not necessary, but recommended.

My bad, yeah, it's just an OEM clutch/flywheel dreplacement 'kit' so it has a new pilot bearing in there with it. And I put in a new MC a few months ago, that's when I realized I needed the new slave lol.

Also.. I'm wanting to go ahead and drain the transmission and put in new fluid, another post said use DEX III or Mobil1



So, would be either one of these? The Castro doesn't say anywhere on it that's it's Dex III, but it says for GM 2005 and earlier vehicles, and NOT for vehicles calling for Dex VI, so it sounds right to me..?
