Hello all. I am replacing the clutch on a TD5 discovery. Whats the best way to do this? I have a set of high ramps and a gearbox jack. Thanks
 
Do you have an engine crane?
If so, in through the passenger side door to take the weight of the gaerbox.
But you may actually find it easier to take the engine out.
 
I bet there are threads on here about it, if not elsewhere on the net.
But one thing I have heard is that it is better to take the transfer box off first as it is heavy and awkward. Do you have a second pair of hands to help? That is more or less essential. Well maybe only for an automatic.
The member on here that I asked about it sadly no longer contributes, but he told me to jack up one side and use an engine crane to hold it then lower it. Balancing it on a normal jack is asking for trouble. But that was with mine which is auto.
So how high are your high ramps?

I'll try and do a search to help you.
