If the vans rwd then it's pretty straightforward to do the clutch but fwd is a bit more involved

[darrenmk7]

fwd typical why is it more involved?

You need to remove the driveshafts which is involves removing the bottom balljoints on both side and the gearbox oil then comes out the holes and loosen the subframe for clearance. Rwd it's just the propshaft

Plenty room you dont need to loosen any subframe, ball joints can be tight to get out, but if you remove the 2 wishbone bolts then the wishbone swivels on the ball joint without splitting and moves out your way, what horsepower is it??

I did my clutch and slave cylinder last weekend, along with the wishbones, balljoints, droplinks, antiroll bar bushes and wheel bearing for the grand total of £350. Wasn't easy graft but with a little help I got it done!
