It's not completely necessary, but you're already there while doing the clutch swap. It's just a matter of renting the pilot bearing puller and the slide hammer from autozone. To swap it out in the future, you'd have to tear it completely back down to get to it.

I'm talking about the throwout bearing. It sounds like you are talking about the pilot bearing....I'm definitely changing that. I have the tools since I'm using my buddies shop.

Definetely swap out the throwout bearing though. Your new slave cylinder should come with a throwout bearing already on it. Good luck on the clutch swap.
