Son's 97XJ, 4.0, Manual transmission, 3" lift, 31s, 19x,xxx miles. Clutch was very worn and then went out. Pedal goes right to floor, makes clicking noise, engine won't start. Clutch master and slave seem ok. We were guessing something with throwout bearing and fork.
His mother is willing to pay to have shop do it. (I had planned on it.)
Shop says needs new clutch, and flywheel and "safety switch." And wants 1,800 (including new battery).
I just went by the shop. Car is in the lot and I look under it. I see a cut wire hanging off back of transfer case (no plug) and that they have not pulled the transmission.
How do they know it needs a flywheel if they haven't dropped the transmission? Am I right to be suspicious?
