Was wondering if anyone had a link or a quickwriteup on how to drop your k-member. Thinking of just droping my k-member to replace my clutch( 2000 GT). . . .Thanks.

 

BUMP. . . PLZ[&:]

 

you don't need to drop the K to change the clutch

 

he has long tubes so he has to to take one side off.... welll.... here it is...

to remove the k-member (doing this on jackstands to sit it on the ground under the car)

take off wheels. decompress springs and disconnect struts. basically just put a jack under the control arm and lift up some on it then take the 2 strut bolts out. then take the 4 back bolts on the k member out. there are also 4 front bolts on it as well. it will drop right out like that. i leave it connected to the steering lines and such, but i disconnect it from the steering shaft on the drive side. it should take about 2 hours to remove the k member and get the header off. you will need a short 13mm wrench for some of those header bolts.

 

Thanks alot. . . anyone else.

 

Hey was wondering if I could get the tranny partially out and unbolt the bellhousing from the inside and back the trans out and then take the bell housing out. That way I dont have to pull the k-member or the header. . . ? Just a thought.

 

heres a LT install link, you remove the k member to install, so just scratch off the rest of what you dont need.

here is somethin I wrote when taken my transmission out.. pm me if you need any help

 

im getting ready to do the same thing, just didnt want to have to mess around with the LT's again, ahhhhh.

 

with the headers in the way and no other way to get past them, how do i get this bolt without dropping the k member😭
