What were the symptoms/signs that alerted you to the flywheel?

It felt like the clutch started hanging up. Had to shut truck off to put it in and out of gear. Small pieces of the bearing were getting hung up in the clutch itself and rolling around... sometimes it would feel somewhat ok, and the next, it would hang up again.

Until I got it apart and could see what had gotten into the clutch to hang it up, it was anyone's guess as to what was wrong.
