What in the world???

Well it used to be that when i laid into the skinny pedal the t case would rattle. never got around to fixin that. well my clutch recently started slippin purty bad, and it seems like ever since this has happened, there has been a TERRIBLE rattle comin from undernieth. i have no idea what it is. i snapped my front driveshaft and removed it a while back, but never noticed this rattlin. its not like you could miss it tho. when you push the clutch to shift, it stops, then you grab the nxt gear and it starts back again. it doesnt effect it how much throttle ya give it. put them thinkin caps on yall. whats goin on?

Just going with the evidence you gave, I suspect the throw-out bearing is shot and siezing on the collar.

That would cause the slipping clutch and the racket.

It will eventually eat it's way through the clutch-fingers and you won't be able to release the clutch.



Or, it could be something totally un-related.
