you shouldn't need one for clutch replacement.
if your doing the job on the ground use a jack to hold engine up
if your doing it on a hoist use a jack to hold engine up lol

Good suggestion. I just prefer to use the support. Provides more room underneath vehicle when lying on your back to complete the job.

Just get some 4X4s, some ratcheting straps and make a support. Takes less time than driving around to pick up and drop off someone else's.

Thank you for the suggestions. I require a support not hoist. Might take up another members offering, depending on timing.

FYI... I believe they are on sale at Princess Auto at the moment... reasonable enough to just buy one.
