Flat rate for four cylinder models is 4.2 hours to replace the clutch disk. A clutch overhaul is 5.5 hours, that includes rebuilding the pressure plate which I am sure you would replace with a rebuilt rather than rebuild it yourself. Flat rate to remove and reinstall the flywheel is 4.5 hours which is what you may have to do depending on whether it needs to be resurfaced. Overcenter clutch adjustment is .3 hours, spring type clutch is .2 hours. Replacing the release bearing is .4 hours with thw the tractor split.
If you take the flywheel time and add to it time to replace the bearings and adjust the clutch you should be very close. Then you need to add extra time for the loader or any other extra equipment.
Flat rates are based on the time it takes an average mechanic to do the job with the tractor clean and on the shop floor. Anything else it takes to get the tractor to that position is extra.
You can take these times and multiply it by the shop rate that is common in you area to give you a gross amount for labor. You can figure that it will take you at least twice as long as an experienced shop with proper tools so you can adjust your rate accordingly or just give a total price for labor.
