Default Re: Replacing clutch boot (de_cat55)

Very simple. If you are talking the one on the firewall, Take the clip off the upper linkage. Remove the 2 screws tha thold the boot on and it should slip over teh 2 bolts and swivel on the rod. If not mark the location of the swivel and remove it. It will then come off. Slid the new one on and replace teh linkage. Should take a couple of minutes. (More like 1/2 hour) by the time you are done.
