It's never not going to be sloppy and if it's shifting fine or not jumping out of 3rd, I'd leave it alone.

If you do want to build it, it is a very simple rebuild. You will need a press to get some of the bearings on. I got my rebuild kit from Novak when I rebuilt the last one i did.

If it's jumping out of 3rd make sure you get the aftermarket spacer that replaces the 3rd, 4th snap rings on the couter shaft to fix the problem.
