Another option is to do nothing. The early dual row IMSB, up to around 2000 had very low failure rates, less than 1%. The problem is that for MY 2000, there is no really reliable way to determine if you have the dual row bearing or the single row (that has an approximate 8% failure rate) without taking out the transmission and flywheel.
I have a 2000 with a build date of June 1999, so I am fairly convinced I have the dual row bearing and I'm not going to do anytrhing until I have to replace the clutch.
