No way of knowing for sure until the transmission is off and you are looking at the exterior of the IMS. The depth of the flange is not visible without that removal and, once you determine that, you can safely order the replacement kit of your choice. You'll have to obtain the special tools also.

Driving history
 
Unfortunately, I know little about the driving history.
These are all good points and it seems to come down to what type of poker player you are. My dilemma in waiting to do a clutch replacement is that the clutch feels very strong and engages earlier to mid travel in the clutch pedal. Both my wife and I have always driven standard and we have never had clutch wearing issues even on vehicles we took over 200+K (volvo 242, Nissan pathfinder).
10% on single row!! I don't think I'm gonna be "all in" on this hand.
I truly appreciate all of your inputs. The retrofit will add value to vehicle I'm sure.

IMS retrofits do not add value, they preserve it.
