Transmission looks mint on the inside, definitely seems to check out as a 220-mile new take off as described.
Unfortunately parts are hard to find lately. I found the side bearings easily, but they also need an intermediate shaft seal (09120610), which is proving to be quite difficult to locate. Wish I stocked up on stuff when it was around. I suppose once this transmission has an issue that can't be fixed, that is when I'll go AWD on a more readily supported trans (like the Evo X).
