Best Answer

The pilot bushing holds the input shaft. A worn bushing will allow the shaft to wobble and wear out the front gear box seal. Leaking gear oil into the clutch bell housing. The result will be a clutch that at first smells bad and eventually the clutch will slip and not work or at worst case cause a fire. Answer could be very dangerous.
