I am having this replacement occurring on y 911S as I write this. This video gives me a greater appreciation of the work being performed. I am handy with a wrench but would NEVER attempt a procedure like this.

I used this video as a reference to replace the arms on my 2005 3.8 C2S. It's a great professional video - the use of tools is excellent, and the torque numbers are really helpful. Mike, thanks for making this, great job!

Removing that coffin arm ball join is a total pain. Pickle fork works in the end, but what an effort!<br>I was able to do it on one side, but the other side is killing me.

Fantastic. I was in the middle of replacing the rear bump stops, spring seats and bellows on my 997.1. I was struggling to work out which nut required which torque until I found this video. There were so many different torques and it's not always easy to understand what arm they were referring to.

This is awesome - looks like the hardest part is fighting the corrosion - a typical issue that turns a 5 minute job into a 5 day job, sigh.

Love these videos. But I'm in the middle of a Scottish 997.1 and you make it look way too easy !!😂

Even though I don’t plan to do this myself, I really like these videos. As an owner of a 997.2, these help me understand more about my car, gives me things to look for and guides conversations with my mechanic. Really great content!
