Clutch Replacement

[spiderweb1967]

I'm new to this forum so apologies if this has been answered. Is there a guide on replacing a clutch on a US model 2013? It's been years since I did a clutch and that was on a rear wheel drive which I know is much easier.

I know there was one kicking around when I googled it last year on Toyota nation, not sure if it is still there or not. it was written by a Toyota tech and explains how he changed his on clutch his way as opposed to the longer book way.

Essentially it was remove the air box, battery and tray. Support the engine with a jack and remove the trans mount. Remove all 9 bell housing bolts and pry the trans off of the engine. Now you'll have access to the clutch.

You'll have to remove the cv axles so you can drop down the trans. You can just zip off the ball joints and this will allow you enough movement of the strut to pull the cv axles without needing an alignment and saves you some time
