It sounds like you found the right direction on the adjustment to recuce your free play. Did you get it down to specs?

If so and the clutch is holding fine, you should be good to go for a while.

As for how long it will last . . . How much adjustment do you have left? If you're at the extreme on reducing your free play, the friction disc might be quite thin and due for replacement before long.

But it's not unheard of for the fingers to be out of adjustment. I've seen one so bad that the throwout bearing never stood a chance of contacting the fingers on an otherwise perfectly good clutch, but that was an extreme and unusual case.

If the clutch isn't slipping, the freeplay is within specs, and you still have room to reduce the freeplay for more wear yet, you should be good to go for a while.
