RE: I think my cagers clutch is going out...help
i did my girlfriend's sister's 93 cav z24...you know the old 3.1 with 5 speed deal and I know exactly why they charge 5-700 in labor. now that's a six cylinder vs. 4 so a lot of the **** behind the motor was a bitch to get to like the intermediate shaft mount on the back of the block but all the same...the fwd stuff is more compact and harder to get to imo. I can drop the trans and take clutch and flywheel off of my camaro in 2 hours, for the cav it took me pretty much two weekend trips from school to do by myself.
the quotes are pretty standard because a clutch replacement would no doubt be a kit deal that includes the pressure plate, disk, throwout bearing, alignment tool, and most likely a pilot bearing. If it's just starting to go out I doubt there's any flywheel damage but as a rule of thumb for me...why not spend the extra 20 bucks to have it resurfaced while you're in there?
If you take your time and pick up a service manual of sorts I have no doubt the novice/intermediate at-home-mechanic could do it on and off for a weekend single handed....lining the awkward gearbox up can be a PITA tho. good luck, with the money you could save you could pick up a nice new set of tires for your bike or a few nice part upgrades.
