Jeep is making a grinding noise only when clutch is depressed. Once in gear, it does not make any noise and drives normally. Any ideas??
 
Throw out bearing. And if you're in there you might as well go for it and do a clutch and pilot bearing.

Had a lot of luck with Luk on Amazon.

Something is wrong with the clutch, I would get in there and inspect it. Throwout bearing may be on the way out.
 
Thanks for the replies. Brought it to a shop I generally use for each repair and the tech drove it and called me and said my transmission is going out but from my research, it seems to me like the throw out bearing is the cause.
 
Of course they'll say that...

You can swap the clutch in a weekend with some basic tools.

I did mine in a gravel driveway.
