School me on installing a hydro clutch.

[colbystephens]

So I found a complete hydro set up for $75 and since my mechanical set up is in need of a major overhaul, I decided to just go ahead and go the hydro route. So, what's the deal with these things?

I know I'll have to put a new hole in my firewall, but beyond that I know nothing about the install. Is there a process of bleeding the lines like brake lines, or??? Any particular parts I should check for wear and replace? This set up is coming out of a 2wd 1991 dually (square body). Any specific type of fluid I should use?

This should be my project for next week after finals are over on Tuesday.

I think I've read all those links and remember the biggest frustrating was bleeding the thing. Do it off the truck and save yourself hours of pain.
