basicly pulling your transmission. unbolt the driveshaft. unbolt the h-pipe(can be a royal pain). unhook the clutch cable.
have a jack to support the transmission, easier with a real transmission jack. unbolt the transmission, pull it back jack it down. take the clutch fork off. throw the new thowout bearing and repeat in reverse order

Dont think there is any shortcuts

You might as well replace your clutch w/ something better, and do your rear-main seal.. The same amount of work involved...



I'm just a fan of not having to do the same work twice, especially if it's recently..
