Personally, I'd just get in there to clean and lubricate the quill. I'm even 50/50 on swapping out a second-generation TOB because, in good conscience, I would have to swap out the quill along with it. That takes some finesse to do properly. I'd ask the tech if he'd ever done one.
I don't know that I'm experienced enough to say, I learned manual on this car so I can only assume I may have mistreated it in the process. I don't ride the clutch at all, the only times I can think of doing any damage to it would be a trying out the OFT launch control a few times and higher rpm driving.

I really am leaning on at least replacing the TOB, I'll give the tech a call before they close to get a better idea of his expertise in replacing these.
