Clutch needed to be replaced. The throwout bearing was making a terrible grinding sound and while that needed to be changed, the clutch got changed too. Turns out it needed to be changed anyways. Throwout bearing was making noise, it was replaced. Also replaced clutch, pilot bearing, rear main seal, and exhaust bolt. Also replaced two rear tires and an inspection. Both of these last two were minimal costs
