Don't give it up too soon. Replacing the input shaft is a simple job
with only a couple of gotchas that are easy enough to avoid. Since
the hard part (pulling the tc out of the vehicle) is already done,
it's a half hour to an hour job. If the AX15 model is dead anyway,
you can probably swap out the input shaft from that - all you have to
watch out for is the bearing style and gear cut.
