65,000 miles. Seems to shift ok...ish,but there is a horrible grinding noise.

Thank you

I went through the other post, thanks for sharing.

Clutch in , noise stops. Stopped,At idle no noise.
I can at least pull the cover, have a look at bearing.
Again, thanks for your time responding.

Maybe you have more insight to help?
Bearing won't come off.
Just snap ring holding it right?
Any suggestions? Special tool? hollow end of shaft complicates,the puller I have.Note, there was a minimal amount of very fine , like dust metal fillings in the small amount of oil that came out. Bearing seized? Options?
