Just curious what the going rate would be for a 5 speed manual transmission with LSD removed from a 1988 928S4 with 130,000 miles?

NP. I bought mine from a junk yard for $1500 a couple of years ago. with LSD. It was out of a low mileage S4. but it was a great deal. im thinking 2k is a good price for box. otherwise, rebuilding the old ones cost about $2k.

The fact that the shift centering spring and the main input bearing are no longer available makes used boxes very desirable.....although at 130,000 miles those two pieces are a crap shoot, at best.
Expecting to be able to put a used transmission, with 130,000 miles on it, directly into a vehicle without rebuilding it is a bit naïve...considering the limited slip is 30,000 miles past its life expectancy....

Is there an easy way to check those parts (shift centering spring and the main input bearing) ?

My 79 trans was rebuilt several years ago. Shifts great. No syncro issues. Just need to warm up before using 2nd gear. Just wondering if a late model trans mounts up into a 79 OB for future ref.
Are there early trans NLA parts like mentioned above in the later trans?
Just building a knowledge base for the future.
