Here are a couple things I thought of;
- Don't forget brake fluid for bleeding the clutch. You might as well since you are in there.
- Order all the bushings for the shifter. A ZHP weighted shift knob never hurts either.
- Inspect the Xdrive actuator gear while you are in there. I hear they wear out, and while it doesn't sound like a difficult thing to get to (I don't know, I am pre Xdrive), I would be frustrated if I had to crawl back under the car again if/when it goes out.
That is all I can think of.

I have ordered these not take a gearbox off twice (supplier policy - no hassle returns, 365 days, I did not request this), will return whatever was not used. - Brake fluid - yes, good Idea, will do.
I ordered the whole Short-Trow SHifter Kit from UCC, hope it will come with all the bushings I possibly need, for $350 it better.
Bolts were ordered because doc said they're 1 time use, may be, may be not but they were just a few $, say something goes wrong, where will I find metric hardware? Once again - I will return if not needed, all to one supplier.
