Nope, their parts.  Clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, cross shaft, 
bearing, fork, taper pin, and push rod, 1 year warranty.........Craig

It really depends on how many times the mechanic has done a clutch job...
for a TR it's a little wierd: removing the interior, etc.

I did my TR4 twice... once for the clutch and then a month later to replace
the newly replaced release bearing. By the time I got around to doing the
TR6, I was really good a tearing it apart. I did the TR4 twice more... once
to replace the tranny with an OD, then again to fix the OD that wasn't
working.

After all that, I can have a tranny on the floor, working alone, (with no
grease on the upholstery) in an hour and a half or two. I'd say the $1100 if
you're supplying the parts, is excessive... $800???
