If you have to ask this question on here, I'm not trying to be condescending, but you're in no way ready to take this task on yourself. Chances are, you don't even possess the proper tools or a heavy duty transmission jack to do this with. And, if you're replacing the throwout bearing, you might as well replace the entire clutch pack.
To replace a throw out bearing in any car or truck you must remove the gearbox, then remove the clutch, then pull the bearing out of the flywheel and replace it. Assemble in reverse order.
It all depends on what kind of freightliner truck you are looking for. There are small freightliner trucks and there are large freightliner trucks available for one to purchase.
The best way to get information on how to buy a freightliner truck, would be to look on international's website. They sell a lot of freightliner trucks.
Which Freightliner? Freightliner manufactures of markets Class 3 through Class 8 vehicles.

if manual transmission it will cause undue wear on the throw out bearing
best to get a whole new clutch ,about 250.00
Well you have a strange issue. Being the trans will not shift into any but reverse would point to the clutch being toast. Normally if the truck will not shift is the slave clyinder or even the clutch master or throw out bearing gone. To rule out the the throw out did it noise while the truck was in neutral and even while in gear.If either apply may be the throw out is gone, but sounds 100% clutch is gone. If the truck will shift into soley reverse then this would rule out the slave, and clutch master cyldr and even the throw out in most cases due to the it is moving the fork to engage the clutch and the surface of the clutch is worn to it's life except reverse due to it is not used as much. I recommend a new clutch and replace the throw out bearing and would be a good idea to replace the pilot bearing and go ahead and do the rear main seal even if its not leaking if its got lots of miles, plus the age would make me do it being you have the trans pulled out.
Yes.
