Also too, consider replacing the pilot bushing, the release 'bearing'
and the front seal on the gearbox while you're at it. Check side play on
the release bearing fork; you probably won't need to do anything, but
it's a bit of a job to put new bushings in.

The clutch on my 100/6 BN4 is starting to slip a bit. So, I
am thinking of replacing it.<br>
<br>
The question is ... is it possible/practical to change it in
situ (without removing the gearbox and the engine from the
car)?<br>
<br>
ie: lift off transmission tunnel, undo and drop propshaft,
disconnect gearbox from engine (no overdrive) and move it
backwards on a jack, change clutch and put it all back
together?<br>
<br>
As always, any advice very gratefully received.<br>
<br>
Many thanks<br>
