[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 427948, member: 18789"] Hard to say. They don’t have a defined mileage limit. Some still work fine at 300k, others have really worn synchros at 150k. Depends on the driver for sure, and they were all filled with the improper fluid at the factory so how long that fluid stayed in there also plays a part. Really no way to know. You might weigh the option of buying brand new. It’s expensive, and will make the whole project much more expensive, it’s about $1700 with no bell housing. But, if you buy the one for 600 and need a $1000+ Rebuild, new might work out better. Definitely some options to weigh. Personally $600 seems like a bit much to me with 180K miles. But, who knows.
