I noticed over a month ago that everytime I put any pressure on the clutch that it would roar (03 TJ)...I had the dealer listen to it but Murphy's law wouldn't allow the mechanic to hear anything...then in the middle of last week the clutch would start screaming everytime I touched it...it was pretty obvious that the clutch throw out bearing was gone...I was then in the woods yesterday and lost the clutch all together...the only way to change gears at all was with the engine off and start it in second without a clutch was not easy..if ya ever tried to start a manual vehicle without clutch you know what I mean.... what happened?? when the throw out bearing goes will it screw the clutch assembly??
