How much did you pay for the trans? Was it from a totaled ‘22 recycler

Swapping in the aftermarket outer bushings that I had been using to tighten that up, in addition to my used Perrin rear bushing. The older control shaft is held in place on each end by a clip, whereas the new one has a snap ring on the rear where the shifter attaches. Possibly to help eliminate some rattles? The shift springs have the same paint on them old and new, so possibly exactly the same. I’m putting the used Mtec springs in. I’ll also be putting in Verus fork, pivot, and the used STI shifter.
