So I think the clutch disc wasn't lining up right. But I think I need to get some sort of transmission jack or adapter to sit it on the floor jack level. Nothing like bench pressing a transmission full of fluid while laying on the garage floor! I need to get the flywheel turned before putting the new clutch in. And I have to say that some things would be a little easier if I had an extra hand or 2.

Jeff I have an adapter for the floor jack made for transmissions. It's a little bent up (don't ask how) but if you want to borrow it you can. Not sure I'll be down that way or not anytime soon so you may have to come pick it up. There's a slight chance I'll be there saturday...if I am I'll call you.
