Question bad throwout bearing????

Will a bad throwout bearing harm anything on the transmission or is it just noisy? Can I leave it until I put a new clutch in sometime in the future?

thanks......

It will eat up the fingers on the Clutch, Especially if it freezes up.
if it disnigrates it can cause problems inside the bell housing.

I agree, dont leave it that way for too long.
Looks like your gonna have to do that clutch a little sooner.
