With the help of my son, we completed this. What a dog of a project - especially the two screws that go through the pedal mount and into the Clutch Master Cylinder. Bleeding this was no picnic either. But everything works great (until next time ).
I'm in-process of replacing my clutch master cylinder, and have hit a snag: 1) I can't get the two "posts" (part of the master cylinder housing) to pull through the firewall. 2) Once I get this thing out and am ready to disconnect the hydraulic lines, how do I bleed this thing?
I would appreciate it if someone would provide some guidance.
Thanks in advance,
Jim Judkins

Not sure, I want to get a set of rotors so I can do the brakes at the same time since it'll be apart. I have pads already.
Pretty soon I think, I don't want to be doing this in the heat of July.
What are you thinking timewise, one day turn around? We could probably do it starting early on a Saturday or start on a Friday afternoon to get a head start.

If we started it on a friday night, that probably would be the best. we could easily get the tranny out in about two and a half hours. that would give us all day saturday to put it back in and put your new bearings in(wheel and stub shaft support). You let me know what works for you. It would be nice to do it before elkhart though, that way you can have fun without feeling risky. If you could some how talk tousley into giving us a hoist for friday night into saturday that would be even better
