squeaky throwout bearing
is there a way to lube it, or is it something i'm going to deal with/replace?
i posted this on jf, but the jk forum would rather talk about gas milage and fog lights lol

The only way to regrease the throwout bearing is to remove it and repack it. If you are going to get that far into it, you'd be crazy not to replace it completely. I personally believe the same applies with the clutch as well.

Mine does this too, just when it's warm. It's a minor annoyance and I don't think it will blow up or anything...

If its noisy, replacement is the only way to go, odds are clutch wont be far behind

the rest of the clutch should be fine, the rig only has 7k on it...

Just replace it. It will prolly last a while, but will annoy the heck out of you.
