My ‘13 2 door needs a throwout bearing and I have decided to put in a Center Force because I am running 38’s and a Ripp supercharger and they recommended upgrading from stock. I have read numerous reports on the TOB going bad prematurely. When I talked to CenterForce they said that the issue is the shaft guide on the input shaft of the tranny. It is a thin metal which is easily worn which causes

space between the TOB and the shaft creating noise and premature wear. They were not aware of any aftermarket options and also stated that the JL’s have a different design which fixes the problem but it will not work on a JK. Has anyone found alternatives besides the factory one?
