#8780, "changing clutch"

i am changing the clutch on my 98 eclipse rs and came across of what else i should replace while the car is apart? i have the cv axles being replaced and the clutch is going in today but idk if a master or slave cylinder should be or if the shift cables or bushings should be too. I am converting the rear drums into disc and will be upgrading suspension soon. still in the market for a new hood...I NEED a speed sensor cable...someone cut it off and the boost guage doesnt work either. help please...

For starters, replace what needs to be replaced. What appears worn or out of service limits?

Next, stick with MTX related topics here. No suspension, exterior, or other shit.

Rear main seal, axle seals, motor/tranny mounts, fluid, etc. Not a bad idea to change the shifter cable bushings to solid metal ones as well as the shifter base bushings.

As Dave said, start with what is worn or broken and needs to be replaced.

I went with the Symborski shifter base bushing kit, and for the cable bushings I just ordered a cheap set off of eGay for like 20 bucks. Some people also choose to use roller blade bearings. I believe there is a Wiki on it...
