transmission/clutch question
I have a 1959 Crewcab and have some apparent clutch problems that need fixing. I am new to this area of repair and wanted to know the level of difficulty and all that was involved in replacing the throw-out bearing, clutch plate and disc. Also: my tranny # is: V 113 301 103 it appears to be newer but I have no idea what year it is or anything about it. It is now bolted to a 1600 sp out of a '71 bug. Any tips on this repair or info on my tranny would be greatly appreciated.

The hardest part is getting the motor out. The rest is very easy.
Be sure you get the right clutch, pressure plate, and T/O bearing.
Actually you may want to take the engine out and then order the parts just to be sure you are getting the right stuff.
