THANKS for all of the helpful information. So, if I am understanding
everything correctly, the master cylinder AND slave cylinder needs to
be replaced and the throwout bearing needs to be lubed. Now, what
about the parts that they have just been replaced? (clutch actuator,
release bearing, hydraulics, and clutch kit) Do they all need to be
replaced again as well? Am I missing anything else that needs to be
replaced or should at least be looked at? I just want to know so that
I know what to tell the dealer when I take it back in for service.

Mike --

Is the clutch pedal shaft and linkage the same thing or have anything
to do with the clutch push rods? I did find a TSB out for my year and
make jeep for these parts; however, my jeep was not manufactured
during the 'specified' time frame. Of course, that's not to say they
didn't miss something or didn't quite fix the problem prior to
manufacturing mine.

Yes! That 'push rod' and it's sliding switch is the part I think is
bad! Either it is physically bad or the MC it pushes on is physically bad.

If that is the bad part, then for sure it has damaged the new clutch kit.

I thought maybe. THANKS!!

I will keep you updated on exactly what the problem was when I take it
in to the dealer for a look-see. I'm sure you're right....from all
the posts I have read in the past you usually are. :D
