General price for clutch job is around $600 drive in and out. Labour being round $500. So I'm guessing round extra $100- $200 lsd fitment.

I had it done recently to my FN2. Dunno if they need to drop the engine or not but they did with mine. Takes about 10-12 hours then add diff bearings, seals, and transmission fluid. Looking at over $900 labour then incl extras over $1k.

I suggest you get clutch /flywheel done at same time with the LSD

woah thats cheap, hook a brother up

If they charged $350 it didn't take 2 days. There's plenty of downtime in that charge. Most mechanics will charge $70 and hour and deals will charge about $100 an hour.

Maybe it was the apprentices brother who did the work, he had to read the manual first tho so it took a full two days

Let us know how much it costed u rick abd what clutch setup abd lsd u get. Indefinately plan on chaning these when my clutch starta to go... Or even if i get a tax return this tine

When i changed my clutch i went to my old workshop & borrowed a hoist for the day, started at 10am and finished it by 5pm, that included a 1 hour lunch break, alot of ciggarette/coffe breaks with the boys & a 1 hour round trip to get the flywheel machined.

It is a big job but I mean it pretty easy to do it in 1 day drive in drive out style. You only need help when it comes to dropping the subfram, that can be considered a 2 man job.

Hardest part was removing the starter motor tbh, the top bolt is a pain in the ass.
