dodge challenger (scat pack) clutch replacement full detail 

This is hands down one of the absolutely best automotive instructional videos I have ever seen.

That's a real dad letting his son join in on work. I must subscribe

Thanks for the video man. Whoever the driver is has zero business being behind the wheel of a manual.

Having already done this on my own Chally, it's much easier to to drop the exhaust & the driveshaft. Just loosen the clamps at the X-pipe, & the remove the 13mm bolts at the hangers. The time it takes to do that is worth it to save on struggling with the trans. Also, having a 2nd person to assist is also a life saver. As for the shifter, it's much easier to remove from the top. Just remove the 2 pins at the front, & unbolt the linkage from the top of the trans. Then you can slide the whole thing forward, out of the stabilizer at the back. No need to disconnect it or the actual stick. I also found it easier to just disconnect the bell housing, & drop it out with the trans. No need to remove that little cover either. You can also leave the starter sitting on top of the sub-frame/sway bar, as it's not in the way at all. That McLeod RXT clutch is beast! Great clutch but it is running about $1500 give or take, depending on where you get it from. I have yet to see a good quality clutch come with a new throw-out bearing. Also, with Challengers, you have to replace the entire hydraulic release mechanism. Don't be cheap, replace that pilot bearing! It'll save you from more trouble in the future. Also put a little lube on the input shaft before trying to install the trans. From the looks of that input shaft, it looks like the pilot bearing is already bad. Looks like there's a groove in the shaft. That can cause issues with shifting if not repaired. That should be fixed prior to re-installing the trans. If the input shaft doesn't go in easily, you may need to put a jack under the back of the engine to lift it & get the trans in line. Also, if you're not replacing the driveshaft bolts with new OEM ones, be sure to use some blue threadlocker on them. As for bleeding the clutch, it'll take 50 or more pedal depresses to build pressure. It would also be a good idea to do a brake fluid flush at the same time, since the master cylinder is shared between the brakes & the clutch. I'd highly recommend some high temp fluid such as Wilwood EXP 600 Plus, especially if you have the multi-piston Brembos. Two bottles should be enough to do a complete flush & refill.

This video just helped me and my dad swap the clutch in my challenger RT. Thank you!!

Thanks for the great instructional. I feel confident enough to tackle this project when my clutch dies. Thanks for your hard work and long hours.

You’re about to save me a lot of money you magnificent bastard you!

Dude thanks for the video. Definitely the most detailed and best video quality repair tutorial. I feel confident that i can now replace my own clutch and save same$$$. Thanks again!

My neck is sore just watching this. Awesome vid

Great job man, definitely one of the most detailed repairs I've seen. Keep it up man, your doing great!

Great quality of video and tutorial. I replaced my stock with a Barton shifter from inside the cabin

Great content, very informative on a badass Muscle Car.

This video is amazing you’re a great person, I have a question, my throw out bearing went out which is why I’m pulling the trans, the clutch was replaced by a shop about a year ago and I just went to pull the pins from the shifter linkage and one of the two lower pins was never put back by the shop, do you think that could be a reason for my TOB going out? I have no idea where to get a new one or where to even start

Take it from me you most definitely need that clutch alignment tool lol

Gracias por el video ,muy bien explicado te mereces 5*

Very good video. I enjoyed it. My critique is of the flywheel, it has hot spots and looks like some scoring, especially bcuz of the condition of the clutch. Personally, I always resurface it when doing clutches. Excellent tutorial though.

Dude thanks for the video. I'm pretty confident in my ability, but I always prefer to get a good look/familiar with the job ahead of time... All I can say is I really hope I don't have to pull my long tubes lol

Dude thank you so much for this, it helped a lot!

Great video. I won't be attempting this. But I know if I needed to that I could!!

Pulling the exhaust and using your legs as leverage...on jack stands, very brave man!

Great video, very well explained. Thank you for your sharing I would like to start the clutch centering device, but I can't find anything Can you send me a link or a reference? THANKS

That’s a legit video

Your boy needs a super detail on the mopar.

The bleeding method I’m going to try it I noticed after a month of not driving it park in my garage one day I tried starting it up I noticed the clutch was very soft I knew it was air in my clutch lines I’ll update if the 200 pumps will make it back stiff or not

Why split the box for the bellhousing? Van the 2 not come off together like any other box?

Great vid bro , definitely going to be using this vid to help me do my one 👍

thank you so much man

If the quote is 3 hours, someone of my skill level can expect three days and bloody knuckles

Damn the most important part it’s sped up when reinstalling the trans 1:01:23 🥺 I’m stuck right there

Can you help how need adjustment clutch pedal

This guy is on point

Great job, but the fly wheel is whats on the engine side.

Clutch got American pied

Hey im doing this job now on my 2010 . Other than some minor chamges do i have to loosen the motor mounts ? Or can i take it out without loosening them ? Great video btw 💪💪

I am doing a cam shaft swap on my scat at home. I do not have much confidence in the Booz bags mechanics around. Here. I work on cars regularly such as full break jobs Water pump replacements and so on but never done a cam job. Any advise ?

I can't figure out why you pulled the shift knob... In hindsight, would you skip that, if you had to do it again? Were the linkages in the way? ... I have one of these on deck, for my lift. And I'm just curious about that one detail.

Disconnect the battery? Are you welding on the frame?

Doing a cam job the one and only video showed hot to get this car on jack stands

Good job man

Hi Jacob, Great video. How much did the replacement cost the customer? Parts and Labor? Have RT 5.7 and mine is showing first signs of a wear.

How much did you charge?

1:17:35 Bleed clutch

I just replaced clutch but now car won’t start, any ideas what could be causing that?

$4700 for dealership to change clutch in ny. That seem really crazy or is it just me?

Hi, Great video. Did you cut the flywheel?

What caused the clutch to go? Stock clutch? Tremec transmission?

A couple questions, 1: How hard would it be to replace the flywheel beyond what you did? 2: How hard would it be to disassemble everything again after you put the locktite on? Just curious if you would be able to remove those bolts with a wrench again or if you're permanently screwed (no puns intended). Thanks in advance!

Whre are you located? I need someone replace my clutch in ilinois or around ilinois please for my challenger srt

Replace those rear tires man would hate to see some dummy total one of these cause of his negligence to traction..

Where’s your shop?
