How long is a Piece of string
I put a New Clutch in my RX, Drove 20 mins heard a bang Lost all clutch pedal Movement Pulled to the side of the road Trying the Clutch waited a couple seconds did it again Clutch came back,Turned into the strongest Ive ever had .Tore abit of linig off which jammed it up
Try this its a great one

The race is the outside bit of the Bearing More likely the bearing is making the Noise
4yrs is ok But that depends on the KS Its Done as well

The Fourth pic in Shows the race (bit around the out side) and the Bearing (inside bit)well thats how i was taught
