I agree with Blaze, Thats if what he means by "throw out bearing" is the thrust bearing. An easy fix, just drop the gearbox off the back of the engine, unclip the bearing and replace.

One of the W50's I had chattered out the splines on the 5th gear lay shaft. It sounded like a bearing had shit itself. Turns out that this is a weak spot in the box as the spline only sits for half the length of the gear.

WARNING don't go cruising around in 5th at 60km/h. the money you save in fuel will cost you twofold in gearbox repairs. I usually don't use 5th until about 80km/h.
