Clutch in an 03+?

I've done a bunch of rwd clutches but after crawling under the car to get a look at the trans im a little confused...any basic write-ups would help even without pictures since im relatively mechanically inclined, just never ripped apart a fwd car before.

I'd like to put a Fidanza light weight flywheel and Stage 4.2 clutch and pressure plate in my ride as well. I've done RWDs too but have no clue as to where to start with a FWD. Looks like the drivers side axle has to come out then you unbolt the transaxle mount, remove the bolts from the "bell housing" and slide the transaxle out the drivers side of the car. I'd also like to put a LSD diff in with some 3.94 gears, how hard would that be to do. I'm keeping and eye on this thread since we've both got about the same question for the gurus here on 2gn.

The factory service manual does an excellent job of explaining how to remove the tranni, and everything else for that matter. Best thing to do is get yourself a service manual.

You can view portions of the service manual online as well. Just do a google search for, "Dodge neon FSM". You might be pleasantly surprised...
