Can you fix a squeaking throw out bearing?

Hey...

My throw out bearing is squeaking but I don't want to take out the whole tranny just to fix it. Is there any way to correct this problem that isn't a huge project??

Thanks!

No. If you still have a stock bearing retainer the throw out bearing is probable binding on the aluminum shaft. You you might need to adjust your clutch. Grab clutch pedal and pull up towards dash untill you hear a click. Push pedal all the way to floor. If not new bearing and steel retainer is a must. Good luck
