Hi,

I'm going to book my disco in for a clutch change soon.

Whilst the gearbox is off, is there anything else i should get changed?

Thanks,
Foz

Pilot bush and heavy duty clutch fork and I was doing it myself and could be bothered I'd do the rear oil seal whist I've got it apart

It's like a metal donut jobber that goes between the clutch and the clutch fork, most kits come with one but not all do

Not done the job myself.

But from what I've read, replacing the crank seal and spigot bush (crank bush) might be a good idea. Along with the slave cylinder while your there.

Is it worth replacing the flywheel bolts (err4574 ?) as they come with that hard loctite when new
