Put some cardboard under your back.
Clutch Judder Definition: Clutch judder is caused by the clutch components and the flywheel not meeting concentrically or mating properly. This generally happens after the vehicle has come to a complete stop and then engaging the clutch during take-off. The physical juddering is the clutch irregularly gripping and slipping as the pedal is let out.  Straight from this site support.competitionclutch.com/support/so...s-for-clutch-judder-
You can do it and will be proud as punch as soon as you have.

Well that was 2 days out of my life, don't know how it could be as quoted as a 3 hour job replacing a clutch
You men must be jimny ninjas
Found out previous owner did have the clutch replaced BUT the so called mechanic must have put a lot of low temperature melting grease around throw out bearing and pivot piont and made its way onto clutch
I put a std excede clutch in, highly recommend

The Suzuki gearbox is relatively light as the T-box is separate, so 3 hours is feasible but remember times are set by Suzuki and are based on a new motor in a clean workshop with all tools and parts to hand.

Remember the bit where I said light?

The LC gearbox comes with the T-box attached and the whole caboodle weighed in at 285lbs

How satisfying does that feel? Forget about the times. The fact is a clutch change is a pretty serious bit of mechanics and doing it yourself saved you a couple of hundred euros. Not sure how much it would cost in the UK  but € 250 €300 would be ballpark over here. 
Looking forward to a spin and flask of tea on some mountain tomorrow evening some time. 
Well done man.
