Clutch Job, and advice

[Bimmer Nut Ed]

I just did the job on a 1990 535im. I've done done a few clutch jobs in my life and IMHO this job was the biggest PITA I've run accross. MAke sure you have time.

Here's a few links of advice I was given, and info about my experience in general.

Good time to consider a different shifter.

I also replaced two of the transmission seals and the rear engine seal, and the plastic pin the clutch fork sits on.
