Get a shop manual from a dealer or an auto parts store. You will need tools - figure about $500 for the tools, plus renting or buying a transmission jack and/or engine lift.
You can either drop the transmission back and down, to get to the clutch or pull the engine and transmission out as a unit, and do the job on the bench.
Basically, to this job yourself, you need to be a gear head with the tools. There is no way to justify the cost of the tools required to the job when you are only going to do the job a few times. If you are going change the clutch on vehicles professionally, the purchase of the tools is economical.
I have changed clutches before, and assisted others.

Go to alldata.com It has the best info on any vehicle. The best thing is you get the exact YEAR, MAKE,MODEL & ENGINE TYPE that your working on. I'm a Automotive Technicain and This is what I alway use. Make sure you go to the DIY Section and it will cost you about 25.00.........Try it out I think your like it.

Take it to a repair shop. It will save you a lot of time and money if you don't have the proper tools to do the job.
