Ford mechanical assistance required

[jontera]

Just as the title would hint towards, I need some advice regarding a little (?) job that my father in law has asked me to do for him.

well, this small job is to change the clutch on his 02 plate zetec focus. The thing is I've not been anywhere near a front wheel drives clutch since about 1992 when I had a mini 1000, seems that as i've got on in years is appear to have forgotten what is entailed.

apart from disconecting the driveshafts, clutch cables (well pipes) associated electricals, possibly the engine mounting/s is there anything else that i might have to remove..such as possibly the front subframe (mini recolection there)....really it can't be that much more difficult than a fronty clutch can it?

so any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated, to help me keep in the good books

oh as an after thought is there any special tools required?

Autodata are showing 3.2 hours for a clutch change in a fully fitted workshop so it is not going to be a quickie in the driveway job
