Default Clutch

Question: Is it to hard to install a clutch guys I need to install a new clutch on this truck I just bought and a new flywheel since I can see from the bottom its got some teeth already damage and I think I am going to need a starter gear (were can i get the starter gear from?) . I have some experience fixing small stuff but I don't know if I can handle the clutch ,I have done the vp44 on my other truck and other small stuff like maintenance tranny and differential airdog install you know small stuff . I can follow instructions very well if somebody tells me how but maybe I need more than instructions ,Is not so much that I don't want to pay somebody to do it it's just that I want to learn how . Thanks !

First off, what kind of truck/trans.? I got my Valair clutch from Mighty Diesel and ordered it with a new flywheel and hydraulics. As far as the starter gear goes, I would just replace the starter. I would definetly rent a trans. jack and do it on a nice flat level surface. And make sure you locktite the new bolts for the flywheel and clutch.
