    If its your daily driver i would advise against it. I get a lot of gearbox chatter when i went to a single mass.

    I agree. So, I am looking for an OEM clutch and flywheel kit to replace the heavily glazed and worn one that I have removed.
    To finally remove the gearbox, I dropped the subframe [4 bolts], then unbolted the steering rack.
    Since I will be removing the flywheel, I will replace the main oil seal as well.

    Can anyone suggest parts sources?

    Thanks...

    Tony did you get bolt out of shaft or did you drill it out ? My bolt is in so tightly I can feel the 6mm hex starting to turn inside the bolt and strip. Someone must of been in here before. As it’s very tight. I don’t want to snap it

    Rounding out the head is way more likely than snapping the bolt.

    You are better shocking it than trying to turn with a ratchet or something. I usually just use an impact gun and out they come.
