But keep in mind that this is a SEALED bearing (what a terrible idea!). Some do speculate that as the seals fail and the grease drains away that oil sloshing can possibly lube the bearing, so who knows.
I'm in the same situation with an '01 at 47,000 mi. Anything can happen. Best situation would be the need to replace a clutch and get the IMS done at the same time.
