I used this kit :-

Which was a little over $150 posted and took about 2 weeks. All parts were spot on for the MC. I also used the same lock-up kit as Cobrin. The accessories drive belt is shorter on the MC (Electric power steer)

All went well but time consuming. A hoist would make this job so much easier.....

Hoping to have a chance to finish it in the morning.

There is no way I would of attempted this without Cobrins write up above.

Finally had time to finish this on the weekend. A very nervous moment when turning the key for the first time. All went well and seems to be driving normally (apart from the transmission shifting which will have to relearn my driving style).

Once again big thanks to Cobrin and his write up which gave me the confidence to attempt this. I wouldn't have even considered it without his pictorial.

A hoist would be a big help doing this job as its a pain to lay under the car reaching up but it is doable.

Cobrin I have a picture of the crankshaft/flywheel lock up tool in place I could PM you if you wanted to add it to your post?
