Gonna need a clutch this year I think.

What extra things should I do whilst it's in bits? It's a 1991 2.5na with lt77 box.

I am thinking
- new hd clutch fork
- rear crankshaft oil seal
- gearbox input shaft seal
- obviously the clutch

Anything else?

Also can peeps recommend what they have found to be good branded clutch parts please

Cheers

Ed

Personally I wouldn't bother buying a HD clutch fork mine failed after two months and I ended up putting the old one back in as it was a Sunday and I couldn't get a replacement in time for work on Monday and it seems a common complaint. Next time I'd be more inclined to beef up an OEM one

Wouldn't bother with the seals unless they're found to be leaking.

Change the gearbox/engine mounts too if they're past their best.

Spigot bush in the end of the crank wouldn't go amiss and they are only a couple of quid

Seconded on the spigot.

Mine was worn and from what I have been told was the reason my Valeo clutch plate failed.

Please tell me the HD clutch fork is better than the one I have thrown away..... Even I thought ****part could not F' that kind of component. I examined it before fitting and I could see no way it could fail.

I honestly can't remember if it came in a blue bag

It may be worth replacing the post the fork pivots on,mine had gone oval.
