I would first check your owner's or shop manual for your year/model of car. (They are on this site in the literature archive.) Mine has an extensive step by step procedure to follow as a clutch replacement was a common repair.
One thing that is not mentioned is centring the clutch in the pressure plate as you reinstall it. Given the very tight tolerances and I having no specialized equipment, I left the main input shaft out of the transmission assembly to act as a centring tool while installing the clutch/pressure plate to the fly wheel. I then completed the transmission assembly and installed it onto the bell housing.
