Re: End clutch installation
It's pretty simple, you can even do it with the tranny still in the car.
Here's IPT's tutorial vid:

Re: End clutch installation
Yeah, all you need is a 10mm or 12mm socket. Snap ring pliers, needle nose pliers, flat head screw driver(s) and a couple c-clamps. Then you pretty much just need to follow the IPT video. And of course the end clutch kit: http://www.importperformancetrans.com/c ... -1671.html The circled area is the housing you need to take off to get to the end clutches out:

Re: End clutch installation
That's cool, I've done it on mine and it's not too bad. Just make sure you follow the video and put the seals in correctly. The hardest part is compressing the return spring using C-Clamps to get to snap ring back on. And remember to soak the clutch disks in auto tranny fluid for at least 30 min before you put it back together.

Re: End clutch installation
Nah, it only comes with the clutches & seals. You can get the tranny fluid at Oreily's. I use Valvoline ATF+4 full synthetic with about 3/4 of a bottle of "lubegard" black. The tranny shifts great with this combo in my experience.
