Tightening the cable stops the noise, but does not fix the problem. Buy the up-grade retainer and a newTWB also cable, quad and FW adjuster. I have had to change out two TWB in the past year due to premature failure.

you can do it yourself with a lil bit of knowhow, it's right inside the bellhousing.

no, you have to remove the exhaust midpipe, driveshaft, tranny, and the bell housing.

you dont have to remove the flywheel... the clutch fork is only clipped on inside, you just give it a good tug, turn it sideways, an the fork and throwout bearing will slide right out of the bellhousing
