--- Quote from: "neil thorne" ---If it was hard to get out aswell is the spiggot bearing o.k as that will be the last think the gearbox shaft goes into??

I know when i fitted a clutch in my series3 i replaced the spiggot bearing but damaged it so when i went to fit the box it wouldn't go all the way in and i spent ages trying to force it in until i took it out and tried fitting a dummy shaft and that wouldn't go in, which is when i realised what i had done :oops: .

hope this helps and you get sorted soon.....

Neil...

Another 6 hour session today has got it in. now just some tightning up to do and trim to be replaced and job done.

I have discovered the following:

It's a lot harder doing a clutch on a 300 as compared to a 200.
You must shore up the engine as 300s tilt the other way to 200s making it very difficult to line up.
Changing a clutch is not a one man job.

What a grand way to spend your birthday!!!

Dr Neil:
Glad your finally sorted!!

Happy Birthday mate :)  :)
