2004 986S preventative maintenance - input please

Hello everyone! Suggestions welcome:

I'm getting ready to take my 2004 S into an independent shop for RMS, IMSB retrofit, Clutch and possibly flywheel depending on what they find "while in there." The car only has 73K kms (45K miles) on it and runs like a top, I picked it up in Germany in April and promptly drove the long way to Spain through 5 countries over 2000 miles plus another 1000 miles since. Not a hint of anything wrong other then a driveline clunk on clutch engagement at low rpms, especially from a stop or on in-town 1st - 2nd shifts. Thinking flywheel/front motor mount/tranny mounts but we'll see what the shop finds.

So, since its going on the lift with tranny out, are there any other must-do items, or at least some to order parts for and inspect just in case? Spending more money then planned is one thing, spending it twice on labor is something else entirely! Thanks in advance for any input.
