Clutch Questions, Help Needed

[wainwrightj]

So the clutch on the Rallye is on the way out and my and my mate are going to tackle it over the weekend

I've been looking at a couple of guides one here and one on the gti6 forum and I feel confident that we can get it done, we're going to take our time and do it properly

I've ordered a Valeo clutch kit, DURA clutch cable, Genuine clutch fork bushes and Genuine Driveshaft seals

I've got a couple of questions though

• Should I use loctite on the clutch to flywheel bolts?
  
• Should I purchase new hub nuts or can you reuse the old ones?
  
• If I can't get hold of a torque wrench to correctly torque the hub nuts would you suggest just doing them up as tight as I possibly can (body weight and a breaker bar tight) or leave it until I can torque them correctly?
  
• Also following on from that which one would apply to a 1999 Rallye, build number is 08102?
  • Front Hub, M20, Before VIN 808980 = 196 lb ft
    
  • Front Hub, M20, After VIN 808980 = 181lb ft
    
  • Front Hub, M24 = 237lb ft
    
• This may well me a huge no no but in the interest of saving money would I be okay to reuse the gearbox oil (only 5000ish miles old)?
  
• Also the kit didn't come with an alignment tool as some others did so any tips for aligning everything without the tool
  

Also if you could all let me know if there's anything I've missed that would be great

Any help is massively appreciated, thanks in advance
