Wow, I can't see doing all that work and not replacing everything.

  I can......    First homer most likely did all the work and the owner watched and "advised"...  Did I get that right homer?

   If it was me and in about 2 or 3 weeks when the clutch goes I'd tell him "been there done that sorry about your luck". Since you have a good idea about the time involved then quote him the cost of the job at a reasonable labour rate,say 20 bucks per hour!

  When I contracted I used to do a few renos and I would always tell the home owner I'd have to charge double if they helped,after all they're learning a trade.....

actually he is one of the few that I have helped out that actually got their hands into it.    he was scared though about breaking stuff, he wanted to pull the u joints apart to get the driveshaft out instead of taking the bolts off of the shaft at the rearend, was worried about them breaking.  Like I told him it might last another 6 months but on the other hand it might last the next 6 times pushing the clutch in.  what I find funny is is that he had already bought the whole clutch kit I think he will learn the hard way about it

i haven't done one that new yet......

 do you know which tranny you have? there's three possibilities. the good news, is that in 08 you still had the shifter directly mounted in the tranny, unlike the getrag in the 011 and newer gt's. the bad news, is that you've now got a hydraulic clutch release to deal with, and as much as i like my fords, ford has ALWAYS found a way to make that difficult to deal with.

i don't know which tranny it is. But it's a 5 speed man. If that helps.
