Not kidding , drive it till it fails. These clutches are not rebuildable. Or worth the effort

My 2010 clutch exploded at 1200 miles. I could feel the play and wish I would have replaced it before it failed.

With 2000 plus miles, she is due for a rebuild. The moveable sheave bushings get sloppy and the rollers are due for replacement I am sure. Keep hearing that they are not rebuildable........but we do them almost every day and have access to every part on that clutch.
