Yeah man. It's the throw out bearing. Might as well replace the entire clutch kit though. Tranny is gotta come out, replace it while it's down. Use a Ford Racing throw out bearing. Not the one that comes with the clutch kit.

There's something else going on. A failed throw out bearing usually screams/whines. The TO bearing could still be bad but something else is going on with it.
The throw-out bearing should always be replaced with the clutch. If things keep failing either someone is being really rough with it or the work isn't being done right.

When you replace your clutch you need pilot bearing, throw out bearing, resurface flywheel, clutch disc and pressure plate or clutch assembly anyways ask them for a list of parts or ask them what they are replacing if they don't they are pulling shady sh/t a true clutch replacement requires all of the parts listed

Good man you shouldn't people like that give shops a bad name they should be straight up with you and tell you what parts you'll need not try and screw you over like that. And yeah for your clutch I would replace anything I could so you don't have to do it over and over and you learning how isn't a bad thing and since it's out I would even replace the clutch fork so you don't have to later
