Help clutch change? Options

[bdog_v]

Hello I just bought a 94 toyota celica GT model 2.2 liter. The clutch is slipping and needs to be changed. I just bought a chilton manual that is very helpful but I am a little concerned. I have changed clutches before on rear wheel drive but never a front wheel drive car.

-I have searched for over an hour for a good write up on how to do this on a 6th gen. or 94 celica with no luck???



-My main question is this. When disconnecting the trans from the motor, the motor is no longer attached to the body in any way that I am aware of so,



-do people usually just pull the whole motor out with the trans.?
*Personally I don't like this idea*

-If so do they drop it out the bottom or pull it out. I don't have an engine hoist at my garage.



-Or how does one go about supporting the motor after the trans is out?

*would just some chains do the job wrapped around the motor and connected to the upper braces on each side of the engine bay?





-How is this usually done, and how difficult is this job say compared to
other cars??? I don't want to pay a ton to have it done when I can do it, unless it wouldn't cost that much...... Thanks guys, I just bought this car and am already losing my hair!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Also I was thinking of buying a centerforce stage II clutch I want a firmer pedal than stock and more holding power. *But it has to have a spring loaded puck!* I don't want an all out racing clutch....

-What is the best clutch for the money???

changine a clutch on a FWD is not super hard in any way ... but not as easy as a RWD... no you don't have to pull the motor out .. but you do have to support the motor and disconnet all the wires and remover both axels... and yes take it out from the bottome if your not going to have the car on a life make sure you have and extra jack and tranny jack makes the job alot easier ... but you dont have to take the mottor out witht he tranny ... hope this answers all your questions... if not hit me up i'll be happy to answer any questions you have ..
