Removing throwout bearing from a T-5
Hi all, I need to replace my throwout bearing in my T-5, with proper tools and a garage, how hard is it to get to?
Thanks in advance,
Jordan

Take out the transmission and it is just sitting on the fork in the bellhousing. Not hard at all in a T5 car.

Before going through all that...
Why do you think you need to replace the throwout bearing?
Instead of concentrating on how to kill the alligators, or even how to drain the swamp, let's find out about how what you're REALLY doing is building a bridge OVER the swamp.

Re: Removing throwout bearing from a T-5
theres a squealing noise that disappears whenever I push the clutch in, this transmission isn't staying in the car forever, once I get interior and bodywork/ paint done the next step is to make more power, but that won't be for another year
