How do you change a clutch in a 1978 ford bronco with a 351M engine ?

I am asking how to do this if you think taking it to a shop is your Answer please do not reply.|||If I remember correctly you%26#039;ll have to remove cross member thats under the transmission and tranfer case. You%26#039;ll have to unhook the drive shafts, linkages and remove the transmission and transfer case, You%26#039;ll need to resurface flywheel and replace clutch assembly.|||If you have never done this, please get a manual and study the steps. Basically you will:


Support the vehicle on jack stands or a lift


Support the transmission while you remove driveshaft and crossmember


Remove shifter from inside the car


remove transmission


Remove bellhousing from engine


remove pressure plate and clutch disc.


reverse all this to reinstall.


Put in new throwout bearing while doing this.
