got a question, for someone with experience Options

[Alexander]

so lately my transmssion has been giving me trouble

i took some advice from other topics that i searched for that said i should go to a trans shop and get it looked at and they said that i did need the clutch and it would be better just to do everything( pressure plates clutch flywheels bearings ya know...the works)

they said the job would run about 680

what do you guys think, can i find the job for a cheeper price, is it something i should attemp myself, and to i need to do everything....

let me know what you think

thanks
Alex

yeah its a big job. most places want at least 500 for the laybor...and the rest for parts. so, 700 sounds about right with the parts included

buy a new rear main seal from toyota (cheap) and have them replace that too.
ask them if they can resurface the flywheel, instead of replacing it. most places just tell u to replace it so that they can make money off the new one.

i went to AMACCO for my last cluch change. the custmer service was awesome. they did a free diagnossis, even recomended i buy my own upgraded clutch kit and not theirs (like i didnt know that aleady, lol ). all the guys came out of the shop to ask me about my swap and one of the guys raved about how powerfull it was after the test drive he took while diagnosing it. lol it cost about 500$ with me buying my own parts.
