Doing in the car is easy, remove mufflers. You will need to have an alignment tool, to line up the two plates splines especially. I made mine from a broom handle, turned it down to the pilot dia then to the spline max. dia, then broached the splines on by pushing thru the old disc, works great! Buy a kit, it is set up with correct spacers etc.. |

"does the transfer gear cover need to first be removed? "
No.
"...through the hole in the bellhousing during disassembly. Is this correct? "
Yes.
"Any special tools needed for a clutch R&R?"
A clutch alignment tool helps but isn't required. 13mm socket(s), 17mm socket, a good torque wrench, blue Loctite, a flat-blade screwdriver. Don't forget to replace the O-rings at the bottom of the bell housing.
"Any input from the TR experts would be appreciated!"
Experienced? Yes. Expert? No. :-)
The dual plate setup requires careful measuring to get the operating heights correct for the disc assemblies. The procedure outlined in the WSM is confusing, at best. It's much easier if you get a "pre-measured" set from someone like T. Rutlands.
I've never done one "in-car", but I'm fairly certain the mufflers have to come out.

Just came over from the Ferrari List - - My thanks to Rob Garvin for the suggestion!
When removing the TR bellhousing for a clutch R&R, does the transfer gear cover need to first be removed? Am assuming that the bellhousing and gear set/ transfer gear cover all are pulled as a single unit to expose the clutch assembly.
Vaguely recall somebody mentioning that the covers pull straight off the engine while intact and leave the power shaft ('propellor' shaft in the parts book) sticking out of the engine. Both of these units would need to be pulled 'straight' off the engine while the shaft effectively recedes through the hole in the bellhousing during disassembly. Is this correct?
In reassembly, what (if any) lubricant have folks been using on the clutch shaft splines where the clutch discs ride on the shaft?
Any special tools needed for a clutch R&R?
Any input from the TR experts would be appreciated!
Rgds,
Vince
