Hello,

Without the pilot bearing you will have internal damages to the transmission as the vehicle gets driven. It can damage the clutch along with the input shaft, as well as other components.
Best option would be to install the bearing right away.

Here is a helpful guide on replacing the pilot bearing:

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
