Instructions For Removal And Installation (Transmission G 86): Installation
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2004 Porsche Boxster, 2003 Porsche Boxster, 2002 Porsche Boxster, 2001 Porsche Boxster, and 2000 Porsche Boxster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
- The flanged shafts are installed with polygonal bearings. The rough running of these bearings when the flanged shafts are not installed does not indicate that the bearings are faulty. The polygonal bearings can be replaced only with the flanged shaft.
- Always replace the snap ring for the halfshaft flange. To do this, clamp the flange with protective jaws and press out the snap ring with the new snap ring "A".
- Grease the snap ring thoroughly and drive in the halfshaft flange.
