I just did mine,well still doing.
Good Luck.
If you think nothing will go wrong your wrong.
My Pelican pilot guide thing worked well for me aligning my pressure plate etc.
Wear safety galsses,unless you like lots of crap in your eyes.
Oh I'm fully expecting something to wrong. It always does!
That's why I want to have every single part I may need on hand.
My car's nether regions aren't too dirty. Only about 15,000 miles on it!
I always start off wearing safety glasses if I'm under a car, but down here in the South when it's 90 degrees and 90-billion % humidity
, those damn things just fog up constantly so I always end up tossing them aside. Probably dumb, but at least I can see what I'm doing....until the sweat starts running down my forehead like a waterfall.
You should come visit the South in the summer, it's lovely!
My 74 had 40 years of dirt,so I had a lot of shit in my eyes day 1.
Luckily it looked like they had just replaced my clutch throw out bearing etc.
So I only had a few problems.
The shift linkage by firewall had stripped thing,so was unable to loosen it,so it stayed while removing tranny.
A few stripped CV bolts.3 Head studs came out while taking off exhaust,
Flywheel has stripped bolt,but they threaded it for a bigger heavier bolt.Found some bare burned wires,Throw out bearing cup shot,and loose.To say it was fun was a understatement.
I did it all myself,so it can be done,but better if you have someones shoulder to cry on.LOLOL.Good Luck.
