Fly wheel and clutch out, guess i need that too.
05/05/2017
Starter, bell housing, clutch and fly wheel are all off.
Rear main seal doesn't look bad but the fly wheel bolts have only the original thread seal and the pan gasket is definitely bad. Head gaskets are fine. Clutch could probably stand to be changed.
So after a closer look at the clutch, it definitely needs to be replaced. You just see a hint of the wear marks. Also the input shaft has play so the bearing retainer needs to be swapped to all steel style. I decided to go with the LUK clutch over exedy just cause the reviews seem better across the internet.
Problem is rockauto is the cheapest clutch kit but they don't seem to have the bearing retainer so I have to pay shipping from 2 different places.
I ended up going with the LUK clutch kit and skipping the bearing retainer.
