Clutch died on way to work this morning on my 01 "S" (80k miles).

I was reading some replacement instructions but it was not clear how high the car needs to be jacked up on stands. Does anyone have a number of inches I need to raise the car to do the Clutch work?

Raise all 4 corners or just the rear onto jack stands?

Also, what is the best clutch kit to put back in. Should I be looking at other than OEM clutches?

What else should I look at while the transmission is out. (I know to look at the IMS and RMS for leaks)
