I am sure mine is on its way out. It pretty much squeals non stop unless i rest my foot on the clutch pedal... The Pedal feel is no longer smooth, it feels like its binding up?
What happens when the bearing is too far gone? Is my clutch damaged at all? I just had a Ram HDX clutch installed early this summer, and out of my excitement to get my stang back on the road after almost two years, I completely didnt think about replacing the throwbearing like I know is supposed to be done....
I plan on, in the spring, replacing the flywheel, slave cylinder and throwout bearing, and pilot bearing.. I do not want to have to replace my clutch that has less than 3000 mile son it....
Any insight is appreciated.....

Worst case, the bearing could sieze and damage your pressure plate and/or input shaft. It isn't worth the risk and you now know why it's SOP to change the pilot and throwout bearings with the clutch.

Make time for it soon.

Yeah it was total stupidity on my part. I actually wouldnt be driving the stang right now but the timing belt on my DD broke...Just not having good luck right now with automobiles....

Yeah so i think the pressure plate died today..not a half hour after i get the expected news that my DD has a couple bent valves. Seriously?
Back to storage it goes i suppose..
