Yup I think you need to take the clutch off. Might as well take off the 
clutch and replace it while you got er out if you don't know it's history. 
You don't want to have to pull it in the near future. If the clutch is 
relatively new just order a plastic clutch alignment tool for reinstall.

Cheers,
