I just put the TRF tranny kit in mine. The Main thing that goes wrong,
in my experience is that the needle bearings on the countershaft go bad,
damaging the cluster gear and countershaft in the process. If the
countershaft races are damaged, you can use the bearings that come with
an outer race. A lot of people recommend using these anyway. New
seals, of course.
I would definitiely do a visual inspection of the clutch and replace any
parts that obviously need it. Keep in mind that it's really disgusting
to put everything back together and find out you SHOULD HAVE replaced
something.
Good luck,
