so does anyone know someone who could possibly assist in changing a rear main and clutch without charging me 500 bucks. I don't really wanna just put it in a shop and let them do it because I would not be gaining any knowledge that way.

i wouldn't mess with a centerforce. I dont think the wittle 2.5L makes enough power to require a high performance clutch. go with one of these: http://www.Dial-A-Clutch.com/Clutch_Kit_p/14319.htm that will be a factory replacement. LUK makes great clutches. most of them last well over 150xxx miles.

as for the rear main, never done one my self but like mark said it seems to be an all day job. just take your time and do it right so you don't have to do it again. if you weren't 3 hours away I'd offer to help. maybe one of the guys up in gainsville will offer up some help.

good luck.

Ya autozone offers 2 different clutches a duralast and a Luk. both are $121.99 and both hava a Life time warranty. So i will prob go with the luk since duralast is the autozone brand.

If you could wait a few months I would be glad to assist. Not difficult just time comsuming.

Just let me know. I know I have to get adams jeep rolling and out of my garage, then the father thing is bound to happen to me any day now. So things should be back to some type of normal in a month or so.
