If the engine is being removed for a major overhaul, the clutch should be checked for wear, and worn components should be replaced as necessary.

Inspect all clutch components, including the flywheel for defects, and check the pilot bearing. Ensure the clutch disc has adequate lining thickness, lacks loose rivets, and is free of damage. It's recommended to replace the release bearing along with the clutch disc.

Begin by turning off the air suspension system if the vehicle is equipped with one. Then, securely raise the vehicle on jackstands.

The initial steps for removing clutch components involve removing the transmission and supporting the engine, preferably using an engine support fixture or hoist. It is essential to use a clutch alignment tool during this process to support the clutch disc, ensuring it remains properly aligned during removal. This prevents damage to the components and simplifies the reinstallation process.
