SHOhhhhMan!
Durrrrrrr.
So, yeah, lately my car has been getting hard to shift between gears, especially into 1st and reverse when sitting at a stop. When the clutch pedal is fully depressed, the car wants to still slowly inch forward because it seems the clutch isn't fully disengaging. (Which explains the hard shifting I suppose. 
) So, would I accurate in describing the events as follows?
1. TOB gets crappy.
2. Crappy TOB damages pressure plate.
3. Pressure plate now will not completely disengage the clutch because of damaged/worn fingers.
Which results in...
4. Replace TOB with Rev. B & Quill Sleeve, replace clutch with Clutchmasters Stage 1 kit, have flywheel machined.
Oh, also, there's a squeaky sort of chattering noise that I can cause to occur when I push the clutch pedal down with the car stopped. No matter what gear, or neutral, makes the noise. What could be causing this noise? Could it be a bad pilot bearing or input bearing? Or is it just the noise of the effed TOB on my effed PP fingers?
Oh, and one other thing, how do I tell if my clutch adjustment linkage is working properly? I'd hate to have just needed to fix my adjust and linkage. I can lift up on the clutch pedal, but when I depress it, is it supposed to click or anything?
Thanks!

I may have to buy a quill sleeve though, we'll see.
