should I buy used tranny, 350K miles

I want to buy a parts 4runner and this guy has one for sale. It has 350,000 miles on it! He's the original owner and all. I want the 5 speed transmission. Can this tranny be good after all those miles? Should I rebuild it? And if so, where is a good place to order the parts.

Thanks :=)

Not unless you plan on rebuilding it.

Yeah, I decided to pass on the high miler. After that many miles, what could be good except the non moving parts? Still looking for a parts vehicle here in the Bay Area.
