    Replacing clutch

    How big of a job is this?

    The clutch is begining to slip a bit if I give it a hard acceleration.

    I am pretty mechanical, and have done the majority of repairs on my TF 1500 since I started driving it in '68.

    Does the engine need to come out? If so I woud also tackle the rear main seal at that tim, as she is leaking more than ever. I add oil so often, it doesn't have a chance to get dirty!

     Thanks in advance for any advice,

    Chris

    This is not a big deal, you’ll need to pull the engine. I would replace the rear seal while the engine’s out, but I think that I would not use the Moss conversion kit.

    Chris - If you remove the seats and floor boards, support the engine and remove the transmission (which you can do with the seats and floorboards removed), it is possible to replace the clutch without removing the engine (whether or not it is easier doing it this way over removing the engine us up for grabs).
