Bad clutch or T/O bearing? Pics
I think I pretty much wore out my clutch. I had a stretched out clutch cable for a while, and it was hard to shift gears. I had a friend install an adjustable clutch cable and quadrant, and he installed the adjuster backwards. This pretty much wore out the clutch (I thought) and after two weeks of driving it with the adjuster backwards, I could feel the clutch grabbing the flywheel when the clutch was depressed. It made a horible scraping sound. So I fixed the adjuster and the problem went away for two weeks. Then, all of a sudden, I started hearing the noise again, constantly.
So flash forward.... I took off the trans, and to my suprise, the clutch seemed ok. The throw out bearing has ever been replaced and it looks a little chewed. What can you guys make out fomr these pics? I bought a new clutch disc and t/o beaing... do I need to replace anything else? Oh yeah the flywheel is going to be resurfaced too.
