NV3500 woes

Well, the truck went in today to have the throwout bearing and clutch replaced
and came back the same day. I have no idea why they felt compelled to replace
the clutch, but oh well. The clutch engages a good bit sooner now and I'm
still a little jerky on my shifts now so I'll give them credit for having DONE
something. As far as FIXING anything, I'm still S.O.L. The low-speed
cavitation and high-speed whine are both still there and I'm thinking it's the
countershaft or low fluid. I'll have the service writer drive it with me
tomorrow over lunch, then back-to-back it with a new 4.7 5-spd and we'll see
how it goes. Man, I hate this stuff. Has anyone else had a similar problem
and had it fixed/not fixed with a new throwout bearing?
