Reviving this thread, yet again! After reading all 44 pages and about 15 other threads, I was dead certain Ultra had the fix for my squeaky pedal and brought the ole girl out today to fix it with a buddy using the lithium #2 grease on all the pivot points.

However I've been starting to hear additional clanking, more than the usual amount. I've always heard the initial engagement "smack" or "clank" or whatever other onomatopoeia you can think of when pulling into the garage at low speeds. The worst is always in first and pulling up the drive into the garage. When I want to disengage the clutch and coast the rest of the way the clutch "clanks" back and forth 2-4 times and is fine after. I do have a stage 2 daily south bend clutch and have heard the engagement clank (only 1 clank) since I've had that clutch in (20k miles/2 years). Pretty sure I kept the OEM flywheel and had it resurfaced. Also had upgraded (17+) TOB, clutch fork, pivot, and pivot ball all replaced at the same time as well since we were already in there. The squeak only reared it's ugly head about 400 mi ago and I've been intentionally driving it less since. It only happens as the car warms up 15-30 min. The clanking happens anytime I disengage after the car has a little torque or I was feathering the clutch with no gas. Is the clanking normal and the squeak is the only thing to fix? I'll try to get sound/video of the clanking here soon. If its just the squeak then I already have the 44 pages of knowledge of how to fix haha, thanks all!

@Ultramaroon, hope you don't mind if I pull you in for yet another transmission conversation!
