    One or 2 guys spending upwards of 6 hours to change a clutch or 4 cars with smaller jobs that take 30 - 40 minutes each and charged for a full hour?

    Clutch changes on some cars will be a nightmare with special tools required and suspension geometry resetting afterwards. Sometimes the whole front subframe assembly needs to be dropped out.

    Want an easy clutch change? Get an old Allegro or Maxi or even a Datsun 120Y.

    I had a Datsun 120A Coupe (FWD) easiest clutch change ever, half an hours work.
