My project 82 D150 is starting to go back together. I'm wondering if I need to have this A833 that came in the truck gone through before re-installation. Just seeing the pictures, can anyone comfortably say that it can be run as is? There is bits of rtv inside the case and sealing the tailshaft so I assume someone has been inside already. My main worry is the the countershaft and if it needs to be bushed to prevent failure during street driving.

I do not plan on racing this truck just yet so it will have a 360 magnum with the 3:55 8.25 and street tires for now. I have been reading through Jamie's book to learn more about the trans but still not sure on taking it apart myself. Brewers is only a few hours away if a rebuild is required.
