Clutch replacement advice

[misterprofessionality]

Im getting up there on the Odometer so im thinking about those friction plates and their condition more and more often. As such, ive decided to start the research process to see if its the kind of surface level low risk stuff I can handle.

My cursory research tells me the basic process is to

get a new set of clutch plates and a gasket,

drain the motor oil,

remove the clutch cover,

clean the gasket surface meticulously,

undo the clutch spring bolts evenly,

remove all the plates and keep them in order,

soak the new plates in motor oil for a few hours,

put the new plates on in the same order,

torque the spring bolts on evenly and set them to the correct torque,

put the clutch cover/new gasket back on,

put the new oil in the motor and off you go.

So: has anybody replaced their clutch plates? What mileage?

Any special tools or procedures i should know about? Any anecdotes about parts of the process that gave you trouble?

Reccomendations on where to buy the plates? It looks like the set from EBC is the best option i can find.

Thanks for any input gang.
