I got several quotes from full service shops to R&R the clutch in my '86 240. They wanted $650 to $700. I had the job done by a place called "Clutch Doctors" for about $350. They used the OE Sachs clutch and pressure plate, resurfaced the flywheel, and put in new throwout bearing, and rear main seal. I asked on this board why they were so much cheaper and was told that, because they limited themselves to clutch and brake work, their overhead was much lower. They use a former gas station. They also have a two year warranty. I believe this is a chain or francise so you may have one nearby.
