Don't throw the old one away, they are all fixable and worth an eBay listing!

replace the gearbox oil if its a second hand box and do it on the bench cos its a pain to do in the car!!

Oh it might be worth sticking some new driveshaft gaiters on. They can perish over time and only cost about £15 for a pair and are dead easy to change :)
