Default Clutch replacement "How to"

There was a thread on how to remove the drivetrain to access the clutch. I have searched, but I can't find it. If I remember correctly is was posted by Cajundude.

Anyone have the link?

Thanks

Click on Dope's clutch writeup. Could that be it?

I just did a clutch last weekend and it's a fair amount of work but if you follow the manual it's not all that hard... Just lots to take off and then you have to put it all back on...

What they don't tell you is forget the part about using "friends" to help. They drink up all the beer and don't show back up the next day for reassembling, when you REALLY need them. I traded in my "friends" for 2 15' ratcheting straps. Hook 1 to each lower control arm and the other ends to each side of the rear end assembly. Makes the whole job of bringing everything inline easy. And they don't touch your beer.
