clutch sliping

[1-2 clutch-u]

Ok so in my other post I explained how I got a 91 wagon and it was slow and had bad gas mileage. Well I fixed the timing belt issue but now the clutch is slipping. Just my luck right. How hard is it to replace the clutch in a 91 NON ALL trac wagon. I can do my supra in about 2-3 hrs now that iv done it so much.

I am going to say probably about 4-5 hours.
I have done it only while pulling the engine also, so that is just a guess.
I think it will be more than the Supra because you need to deal with the two axle shafts and the lower beam.
The rear engine mount can be a son-of-a-gun.

Raise the front of the car 2.5 - 3 feet. The entire front subframe has to come out, left front knuckle (calipers can just hang there) for ease and room, all engine/ trans mount EXCEPT the upper engine mount on the passenger (the one that sits next to the windshield washer reservoir), the starter has to come off, all clutch lines and linkages disconnected at the trans, speedo cable. Using a jack under the engine and a jack under the trans, tilt the entire eng/ trans down towards the driver side. Of course, all the trans-to-eng bolt are off or at least keeping the trans from unexpected moving. Maneuver the trans off and out.

I say 4 hours, experienced. Of course, not taking into account any problems you may come to.... Stuck bolts, lost tools, no tools, etc.

Not the sub frame, you mean the cross member, right?

Subframe, I had to remove the entire thing, control arms and all.

I used an engine hoist, and a transmission jack.

Pulled the longitudinal cross member and the axle shafts (+engine mounts and the other stuff).

Tilted them both, the engine up and the gearbox down.
I seperated them like that,
then lifted the engine out and lowered the transmission jack with the gearbox,
then pulled it out the left side.

Not hard, it just takes time and confidence.

Tools I used: Two hydraulic jacks, two jackstands, one engine hoist.

Took me 12 hours to do the first time, I could probably do it in half the time now.

Make sure you do the crossmember mod while you're in there.
