Question Clutch change (other jobs to do)

What other jobs would you do at the same time as changing the clutch? I am (hopefully!) going to have a lightened (8kg) flywheel to go in. Are there any oil seals etc that can/should be done at the same time. The clutch will be a borg and beck one (if I can find a link to the place that does them for £120!!! ), are there any other parts I need to get, bearings etc.

Thanks in advance

Mike

It wouldn't harm to change the crankshaft rear oil seal whilst the flywheel is off

Wouldn't pay to get it lightened - just refaced. I had mine lightened to about 8kg and I can't tell much difference

I am not sure about the borg & beck clutch, not used one myself.
Doesn't it come with a new bearing as part of the kit. If not then I would used a new bearing as well.
I would also also skim the flywheel.
