The single mass flywheel is now 2 pieces. Basically the rivets that hold the two units together broke. Clutch, PP, TO bearing, etc. are all okay.
I have about 20K on the clutch. Still looks new. Yes, before the 60K warranty expired, I had the clutch and PP replaced. However, flywheels are supposed to last up to 100K miles so I never asked for it to be replaced. Besides, dealer would probably charged me an extra $1400+ for the flywheeel.
check out this thread for instructions on how to install the clutch. pretty straightforward if u already know your way around after dropping the tranny.
My writeup is post #85. Look at step 11. Thats probably the most important thing I found to slide the transmission back in.

The tranny slid like butter without any issues with the last inch or so. Based on various write ups, clutch alignment was critical so I was super cautious here. I even noticed that when the tool is inserted, there is still a small “play” in all directions.
Though I bought the Lisle unit, I still added the inner race collar of the old flywheel bearing. I am not sure if my theory helped but I think after inserting the tool into the new flywheel bearing, it made the tool “aligned AND square” to the new bearing.
