Yes, you wouldn't want her coughing anything up while under anesthetic! And by the way, probably a good decision considering what you have invested in her. I assume you are going for the upgraded LN bearing, but are you also getting the clutch done?

21k on the clock, i'd say they clutch is about only 1/3 worn if that.
I'd save my cash, and stick a new bearing in there when it goes. 30/40k down the road...so by JD's standard....15 years from now!
Love you man!

I'm guessing the clutch probably has even less wear than that. In which case, I'll be in assisted living by the time it has to be replaced.

Bravo JD! Get 'er done with and enjoy.
Sometimes being a man of danger is knowing which battles to fight, and this opponent is a ninja.

I hope the Dr. has skinny fingers.
Seriously, how do you inspect play in the IMSB short of taking down the trans?
