I've always used the Borg and Beck clutch kits and have never had an
instant's problems wit them.

My clutch is starting to slip on my 76 Spit and probably needs replacing.

This winter I am planning on taking the tranny out through the interior and
I
will also replace the three U joints in the rear end, get the flywheel
resurfaced, and replace the fluids in the tranny and rear end while I am at
it.

The only parts I have so far are the U joints and the rubber tranny mounts.
I
may need to install a new carpet set as well if the old one does not come
out
in one piece.

Any suggestions on parts that work well or other things that I should do or
check while everything is apart would be appreciated.

Any tips or tricks that I should know would be great as well.

Thanks

Jim
