The preceeding posts are all good advice.

I would just add that at 118,000 miles on the car my recommendation would be to replace the flywheel as a matter of both safety (they crack from metal fatigue) and to ensure that you don't encounter problems with vibration after the new clutch is in (I've seen it happen).

A new stock cast-iron flywheel runs about $100.
Steel is $225. and recommended but on a stock engine, not really raced, the iron flywheel will do as the original one has lasted 118,000 miles.

Replace that rear main seal as they always leak.
