From the interior of the truck:
Spin off your shifter knobs
Remove the shifting console trim by the 4 screws around the perimeter
Remove the inner shift boots
Remove the shifters by unbolting the plates underneath them, paying close attention to the way they were oriented as they came out
Stuff rags in the holes of left from the shifters
Set the parking brake and/or chalk your tires
Remove the front and rear driveshafts
Unbolt the slave cylinder from the side of the bellhousing
Remove all of the bolts on the bellhousing
Place a tranny jack underneath the transmission (floor jack if you want a challenge)
Unbolt the rear crossmember
Pull the transmission back until the input shaft clears the clutch
Slowly lower and pull back the transmission at the same time until it is completely out of the way
Remove all of the bolts on the clutch housing, and the clutch disk will come off with it
Remove the flywheel and have it either resurfaced or replaced
Remove the pilot bearing
Here's a little backyard mechanic trick to the Toyota pilot bearings. It works better than commercial pilot bearing pullers, and "the grease trick":
Get a couple pieces of newspaper, and soak them in water. Tear up the newspaper, making little "spitwads" Shove the spitwads into the center of pilot bearing Get a socket that closely matches the diameter of the hole, and pound the spitwads back with a hammer. Keep shoving more spitwads in and pounding them back. Soon you will start to see the pilot bearing moving, but keep going until it pops out. You will just be left with a big ball of wet newspaper that's easy to throw away, rather than a broken pilot bearing puller or a bunch of messy grease. And usually it only takes a couple of minutes which is much faster than the other methods. Strange, but it works.
Now slip off the throwout bearing from the transmission input shaft and replace it with the new one.
Put your new flywheel on, and make sure that it is torqued to spec, and with new thread lock applied
Put the pressure plate and clutch disk on the alignment tool
Using the alignment tool test fit the new clutch assembly and bolt it on
Torque the pressure plate down using a cross-pattern, so as to not warp anything
Remove the alignment tool
Install transmission, and everything else in reverse order
Oh and one major thing: Do not touch anything on the clutch or flywheel with your greasy hands. Make sure you have some CLEAN gloves when you are dealing with the new parts.
If this is your first clutch job, expect about 6-8 hours of work. Otherwise, maybe 4-5 or so.
