			 Been a bit since the last time I did a clutch IN a car. I seem to recall hearing of doing one w/out taking the trans out.  I'd rather not have to do that, as removing the exhaust, turbo bits, and  trans adds a lot more work.  Ant thoughts or hints/tips?  Its just me in the garage today, so hopefully I can get this done for the weekend.

			 It CAN be done without removing the tranny from the car.  I've seen it done by pulling it back and letting it hang by the axles, laying on the HEs.  The guy doing it believed it was faster, but I'm not so sure.  Still, under an hour IS pretty good time.
