clutch chatter). Ream out the case? or ? Listening to suggestions from them

Upon this am examination, the wear on the shaft is isolated to one side, ie longitudal needle wear gouges from lack of rotating. The shaft can be turned 180 exhibiting no wear. The needle bearings are pressed out, and it looks like we can turn broze bushings to fit. From there a bit of weld on the clutch fork ends that show wear on contact to the TO bearing. Or may get a new fork which will have the ID of the shaft, bore the fork and make the bronze bushing to fit.
Porsche and their infinite wisdom put needle bearings with a smidgeon of grease and tiny seals in a harsh enviorment with a healthy load provided by ones foot, further enhanced via the hydraulics. So any one been here? The factory update of boring the case, special reamer ,arbor and all new parts is nonsense!
