the mechanic who will be changing my clutch for me when i buy one is there a special tool needed? or is it just change the clutch?

 

You won't need any special tools just some rather special ability, check out pie n chips clutch expert required thread, Ray has put some pics on there showing the difficult to get to bits.

 

Nope, no special tools, the usual clutch alignment tool, or the little plastic one they supply with most kits.

 

You really could do with a balljointed flexible extension and a nice long 1/2 drive extension.

UJ's won't work here.

You can possibly get away with a wobble bar if you can drop the subframe enough.

Otherwise, piece of cake.
