Default Clutch replacement

Ok call me lucky, the best deal I could find on installing a new clutch was $500.00. :eek:

I just checked out the automotive hobby shop here on base. They have everything, lifts, trans jacks, torque wrenches, service manuals and, lift time @ $7.00 / hr. :yesnod: Your tax $$ at work. :D

I've been reading CF threads on replacing the clutch but I haven't seen any mention of replacing the pilot bearing. Does anybody know if this needs or should be done with a clutch replace in a C5?

Now that I have a place to work, I'll order the parts next week.

Thanks,

:cheers:

Considering the sub-$10 cost of a pilot bearing, and that you'll already be right in there.. I always change em..
