928 5 Speed Swap - Torque Tube Disassembly

[@DIYDanCars]

Thanks for the video showing us the process to rebuild one of these. I think I'll be spending $600 for a rebuilt unit now. :)

it was a bastard. and I wound up doing it again because the cheapo bearings from garage9 didn't fit properly.

@@IntenseBlue318 Oh man! That sucks! Sorry to hear!

@@DIYDanCars I wound up getting bearings and new vibration damper mounts from 928intl. They're definitely more stout than the original bearing mounts

@@IntenseBlue318 Cool! I bought my first rebuilt torque tube from them 10 years ago, and it's still going strong. Now my dad's 928 needs a torque tube and we thought about doing it ourselves, but after seeing your video, there was no way that was happening! :)

Thanks for showing. We need more videos of the 928, for us that are new to it's restoration! : )

I'm not all that experienced with it, I've not quite had this one 2 years.

Make some work benches it will make this work so much more easy to undertake.

[@IntenseBlue318]

Sadly no room for that at the moment

@@IntenseBlue318 I took your ideas and application and tweaked it a bit to work for me...kzbin.info/www/bejne/rni2mHmhas5kpdU

Good job

[@IntenseBlue318]

putting the new bearings in probably won't be much more fun

[@Dundertaker1]

IntenseBlue318 no lie! I’ll have to read the WSM so I can start feeling sorry for you. ;). Are those just standard tempkin/race type?

[@IntenseBlue318]

@@Dundertaker1 they are, but they have nylon sleeves pushed into the inner race too. Only seems to be one place (Jaeger engineering) that has them.
