you can change the clutch without removing the gearbox from the car, i did my brothers and mine, never did a clutch before!
did a lot of reading and watching videos , i had a broken clip that holds the arm to the ball joint on the gearbox, also changed the Spigot bearing
the bolt above the starter motor was the hardest to get too, and was getting the gearbox off the dowls
my brothers took 11 hours ( never done a clutch before) mine took a 5 days as i had to wait for parts

Thanks for the info - that's clip 8 I think. I'll order one before I start and a release bearing. Still can't find clip 6 for sale at the moment.
There was some vibration around 2000rpm which seems common (LUK clutch fitted apparently), but it has all but disappeared after 1000 miles - like something has bedded in or something, so I was hoping to leave the clutch bolted to the flywheel unless there's not enough room to work on the fork and release bearing.

The bearing on the layshaft - nearest the clutch - on my SJ413 would throw a wobbly after 50,000 miles or so and that required the g/box out and a strip down. From memory this was easy enough especially as the box was light enough to do it solo. I doubt if the Gen. 3 is any harder.
It can be done with the box just being moved back between the chassis rails but I personally do not see the point. If you remove the box it will be easier to access the flywheel and clutch.
Remember that there is a lot of practical and technical knowledge on this forum to assist you in this work.

Thanks Roger. I'll see how I get on. I might take it out if I think I can manage it.
I'll get what bits I can and then make a start later in the week. I'll update the post in a couple of weeks.
Thanks for everyone's help.
Cheers
Dave
