    Default Throw Out Bearing

    My throw out bearing is going out again. I think that the problem lies in the person that I had do it but thats a whole other story.

    Will it hurt anything to drive it like it is? My third gear syncros are already chirping a bit (like that when I bought it), but I'm planning on fixing everything and putting a longer final drive in it sometime in the near future.

    So basically, will it cause anymore damage than has already been done to drive it with that terrible cricket like chirping?

    Thanks, Reps for help

    It can eventually become an issue if it comes apart, but unless it gets super loud I wouldnt worry about it unless you have time to change it.
