Times guide says 4 hrs. Real world times depending on who's doing it would probably be somewhere between 4 to 6 hrs. Rates per hour vary from shop to shop obviously so check this but pick someone trustworthy.
Things you'd look at supplying yourself would be:
clutch kit (centre plate/pressure plate/throw out bearing)
spigot bearing
rear main seal(aka rear crank shaft seal)
gear oil
Also allow for flywheel machining too.

If your buying the parts yourself give this feller a bell ripperdeals@yahoo.com.au
Got my clutch, among other things, through him and it was heaps cheaper than anywhere else.
4-6 hrs sounds about right. But workshop will charge anywhere from $60-120/hr... maybe more.
Flywheel shouldn't be more than $40 to machine.

I'm sure the cruiser is different but I just bolted my clutch up in my G60 build (see sig) and I would hate to change teh clutch with teh body on later on. Just the transfer/ gearbox weight at least 120kg.
On the bright side I will have to take the whole engine out to change my clutch once the body is on

I just did my clutch in an 88 hilux and having done many clutches in the past, and never in a workshop, I thought this would be an easy task. ( at a mates workshop with full use of hoists tools lifts etc )
If someone can do it for a few hundred dollars for god sake let them do it !
I am glad I did it myself but I had ALL DAY to do it. Everything always takes MUCH longer than you anticipate. And nothing goes to plan so be warned champ. BUT GOOD LUCK!

p.s. People should offer their mechanical skills at an hourly rate, make some cash on the side. ( shotgun not me ! )

I pulled mine out on a wednesday, back together on Thursday. Prick of a job i hope i never have to do again. I'd happily pay $280 - $350 for unpainful use of my back and neck.seaeagle wrote:gota a few quotes today....$350 and 280. might just set a side the time and do it my self. least i know its done how i want it..... with a few beers and a friday nite start, i hope its done by sunday....lol
Heavy, awkward, uncomfortable mutha of a job. You're back and neck will be sore for days afterwards. So much easier with hoist and proper jack.

i just did the clutch and rear main in my 40, relatively easy though because the front half of the cab comes off.
i dont pull the box and trans out, just crane the engine out the front.
i do a fair amount of mechanical work for my mates, but i refuse cashies for people i dont know, if ANYTHING goes wrong with thier car, your the first to be shot with "awww what did you do to it??" regardless of the problem, then thiers liability etc,

I would have thought the price would be anywhere up to $500. With the prices you've got I would not even consider doing it myself.seaeagle wrote:gota a few quotes today....$350 and 280. might just set a side the time and do it my self. least i know its done how i want it..... with a few beers and a friday nite start, i hope its done by sunday....lol

I paid $900 for parts and labour on my Maverick clutch. I would have to check how that broke down into parts vs labour, but I would have though labour made up about $500 of it. Could be wrong though.RAY185 wrote:This is just labour chimp. Parts on top.chimpboy wrote:I would have thought the price would be anywhere up to $500.

I still wouldn't do a clutch in a 60 if I could afford to get it done by someone else
