Anyways, so I would NOT be doing the job myself, so considering how expensive labor is, what other opportunistic things should I consider replacing/upgrading/fixing while they're pulling the tranny off to change the clutch?
- lightweight flywheel? might as well, it would need to be resurfaced anyway
- new drive axels? not unless there's anything wrong with them
- LSD? Would require dissassembly of the trans itself
- check health of the synchros and gears? see above
- (do they automatically replace tranny fluid with new stuff?) tell them to just to be sure
- ???
Answers are in your quote. For the LSD, and checking gears and synchros it's not reccomended unless you have grinding and/or bearing noise, or if you just really want that LSD. Tranny disassembly costs many labour hours.
