The snap clip is a pain, after that is easy. But bleeding the slave will take awhile.

Ditto on both. I had to use the handle of a scredwdrive to push it back in. As far as bleeding it.. my arm is still sore! haha All in all it was a little over an hour. So far so good. Hopefully this will solve the clutch sticking problem. I'll let you guys know.

Changing your fluid to synthetic DOT4 fluid with a syringe will stop the clutch sticking problem!!

Check out the link for instructions:

just make sure you loosen all the bolt/screw first before you remove the clip that is holding the line. Trust me if you remove the clip first then you will have a hard time unscrewing the line.

Question DIY- Clutch Line with pictures?

Does anyone have a better picture of where the clutch line goes? I received my SS clutch line, but it didn't come with instructions. I don't want to sound like a total noob, but it looks like the clutch line is connected to the transmission, but the pictures I've seen kinda suck. Are there any good DIY instructions with pictures? I've searched, but had no luck finding anything.

Thanks,

Ian
