Absolutely. Self machining syndrome will bore a hole into the INSIDE of the 
bellhousing once the cross-shaft moves over and starts eating the case. You 
would not be able to spot the hole from the outside without pulling the 
tranny....

Also, before you change your flange seals, you'll want to check the seal 
surface of the flanges themselves. It doesn't take much of a wear ridge to 
tear up the new seal in short order. If you can catch a fingernail on the 
flange, I'd say replace it too.

Good Luck,
Danny
