The short answer: Pull the transmission and put a clutch kit in it. A Honda Accord clutch kit comes with the clutch disc, pressure plate, and a new throwout bearing.Once you get the transmission out, the throwout bearing is slid onto the transmission input shaft and is connected to the clutch arm. You unhook it from the clutch arm, slip it off the shaft and put the new one in its place.
