Already got all the parts ordered from FCP; clutch kit, pilot bearing, rear seal, etc. Last clutch i job performed was my `80 toyota truck in `90. Parts were a wedding gift from my parents. Did it in the driveway.
Never done one on a Volvo. My main question is how awkward/heavy is the transmission? Am I gonna want a tranny jack or cradle for the floor jack? The local garage threw a price of $150-175 with my parts. I'd have to clean out the garage, but at least I wouldn't be doing in on a gravel driveway like last time... Looking for input, tips, experiences to help decide. Thanks.
