Quite annoying indeed. Mine lasted roughly three months before it started clamoring again. I put in an ACT HD kit that came with a TOB, didn't find out until later that it was the same OEM TOB. Shortly after I picked up a national bearing one that everyone says is the ticket, just never got around to doing the swap... then I blew out my shoulder and wound up selling it to buy an auto.

I've been semi-budgeting for when mine finally goes. It drives fine, rattles some, but I've never felt it needed dealt with since jeep said they wouldn't warrant my clutch.... At about 20k I was told its a wear item and I could have abused it causing it to rattle.
