nice rig, real nice.
"near bottom on passenger side, I hear a banshee of sorts" bad 5speed box.
if all synchro's shift fast, then id just do the bearing kit.
the needles are low stress and usually are ok.
get a full ball kit. it may go another 100k.
make sure the bolt to the rear or right side filler is not loose, some shops try to take this off for fill check and if loose bad sounds.
