hi sages who have actually done a clutch job on a late model 240- always prefer to plan and lay out a major job before it becomes urgent. have done many clutch jobs on rwd american tanks. my 92 245 with the m47 is running fine now but we all know how quick that can change. seeking your recommendations on the inevitable clutch replacement: 1. how do you disconnect the shifter linkage from the m47? 2. should the clutch fork be replaced even if it looks ok? 3. if flywheel looks ok, no gouges or cracks should it be replaced or just resurfaced? 4. understand from sages here that behind the flywheel there is an oil seal for the cam shaft end . is replacing it one hellacious job or should i leave it alone? 5.have looked all over the m47 which works and shifts fine and has no leaks but does have 241k- knowing that parts, internal repairs and junkyard replacements are really tough on this trans do you recommend any maintenance while it is on the floor? plan would be to replace the pressure plate, clutch plate, release bearing and pilot bearing. your advice may prevent me from being held up(trip delay and shysters) late one night on tobacco road. thanks tons oldduke
