thats the pressure plate on its way out
so do it before you stop in the middle of a highway needing a tow
end up with an expensive repair bill every clutch place machines the flywheel as well so allow for that expense on top of the clutch fitting

yes if you intend to replace clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing

no need to do double te work or make your mechanic rich
