That's basically what I am doing - putting in a new bearing, removing the outside seal, and installing the DOF. This is on a 2003 Carrera 4S with single row bearing. I'm just not 100% sure yet if I'm going back in with a SKF steel bearing or a ceramic bearing. I have both in my hands, but my mind is not made up. Transmission came out of the car Sunday. The RMS and IMS are both leaking oil, the IMS is leaking worse. This next weekend I'll get the IMS bearing changed out and oil feed installed. I'll probably start a separate thread with photos about the install and my impressions of the DOF system. So far I really like what I see with it. I got a nice set of instructions with clear photos and details on the install. The quality of the parts seems really good too.
