Default Completed our clutch!!

We got our parts and finished our install. It ws 88 degrees and humid and we did all the work in our driveway. The tools got so hot we had to keep covering them. The install went slower than I had hoped and we had only minor glitches. Our '98 EX had to have the fly-wheel cover installed before the fly-wheel, clutch and pressure plate are installed. Argh ... we had to do that twice. Additionally, we got the linkages arms crossed and could not manuever them because we were on jack stands. We just needed to dis-assemble one more completely which only took an extra 20 minutes or so. We took care in positioning the clutch assembly and the tranny went it pretty easily. I rested the tranny on my chest and my son lifted from the top. We had no extra bolts and no other glitches. Your directions are 5-star. One of the manuals I bought was totally crappy. Guess they are intended for experts. Anyway, MUCH obliged!
