Just got my...

Centerforce DF clutch, aluminum flywheel, new throwout bearing and all the hardware from CED minutes ago! Im so excited, but not for the install this weekend lol. Any tips, pointers, lookouts, anything anyone can give during the install for me? Ive read a few things but hoping to get some more info. Im going with the Royal Purple tranny fluid also. Also, where do you all recommend I place the jackstands with the cradle being off the car??? Ill be on my back with this thing the whole weekend. Thanks in advance!!!

I don't think that the eclipse alignment tool will work with your clutch disk. See if someone can give you one from there clutch kit. I would give you mine, but i'm in CT. Also, our transmissions take a special fluid that you can only get at the dealership. It's like $22 a quart, but use anything else at your own risk. Could mess up you tranny, just a FYI.

Thanks man, yea i kind of figured the eclipse tool wouldnt work but it would be something. Ive read a few threads on here of guys using the Royal Purple Max lube I think it was and have had no problems at all, it matches up with GM's certifications for our trannys. thanks for the input.
