How difficult is it to replace a clutch in a 2001 GT. How long should it take .
I have never done on in a late model before I have put 5 or 6 in older Mustangs
65 to 70. Thanks

 

for a clutch kit? Expect 150 or so.

 

Mine is an '03 so we have slightly different trans - regardless, mine took me 2 days ha ha - including refinishing the flywheel.

Really, it was about 5 hours of actual work, but I spent about a total of 2 hours trying to figure out WTF I was doing LOL. If you know what you are doing and have a lift and REAL tools. you should be able to do it in 3 hours or so. I think the dealer quoted me 3.5 hours labor......I shoulda taken them up on it.

I put in the FRPP racing clutch kit.

 

I also did mine...I concur with the 5 hours. I didn't refinish the flywheel though...didn't need to. I read in my Haynes that they shouldn't be cut since they are not necessarily flat and that they should be replaced. This may have been a generic statement for flywheels that are contoured..not sure...never heard of it before. I live in the boonies and would only take it to be cut if absolutely necessary.

 

It takes me two hours to do but the flywheel should be cut thats for sure.I just bought a new one so i didnt have to wait but cutting it is cheaper.Total job with buying a clutch & flywheel cost me 500

 

Replaced mine in the '96 in about 5 hours total. That's with air tools. Hand tools would have added an hour or so. Cut the flywheel. I've never heard of not cutting one....

 

I got a Lux Performance Gold Clutch kit. There web site list a 10.5 inch clutch for the car I will find out what size it on Friday
anyone know what size the disc is in a 2001 GT

 

Dealer told me 7 hours on a 95 gt, took me about 10. I had never done one before, and it was a learn as I go experience. Turned out GREAT!! Good luck!
