Changing a clutch

Great guide Ian. I was going to put my 110 into the garage when the time for a new clutch and/or gearbox comes round but I think you've inspired me to tackle the job at home. At least I'll know it's been done properly. I assume you removed the gearbox and transfer box as a single unit and they came out of the passenger door as the steering wheel/column would prevent them being removed via the drivers door?
I'm hoping there'll be some pictures of this job when your updated website appears 8)

Guy90:
Now on the 12th hour of changing the clutch :evil: :evil: . The last five hours were spent trying to persuade the gearbox to mate with the engine. No go so far.
We will return to the fray on Monday :evil:
Below is the reason the clutch failed. I've not seen this bodge before Not only is the mechanic who did this inept but also can't weld. I shall be looking though the service history of the car to find out which garage did it so you all know not to go there.
Guy90:
I've been able to identify who did the above back in 2004.
I can PM anyone who wants to know the name of the Leighton Buzzard based person who did it so you can avoid like the plague.
He has done a lot of work on this 90 which now concerns me quite a bit :evil:
Dr Neil:
good to hear from you again Guy!! How's the wheel bearings :evil: :lol: ?
good luck with the clutch, what's the problem with refitting the gearbox? Did you make sure you were supplieg with the right clutch(ie are the splines the same).
keep up the good work
Neil....
