WTB: Used/Damaged IMS Bearing
 

Want Old/used/Damaged IMS Bearing from any Model Year 986/986.5 Boxster, for engineering project. Willing to pay for part and shipping to Baltimore, MD.

single or double row?
I have both.

I have a single row in perfect condition minus the seal (took out seal to look at bearings. 18000 miles one the ims.

How much are you paying?

I would prefer damaged condition actually (Don't worry this isnt going in a car). Just name or PM me the cost and we can work out shipping I guess.

Does a double row out of a 2000 'S' damaged by ME count? I was po'd there was nothing wrong with so got a little mean with it.

How damaged? I;m looking for one with signs of ball bearing corrosion/abrasion. If it looks like it does, then yes it counts.

Nope sorry...it was perfect until I beat it out of frustration.

WhipE350 when I did my 2000 S double row it was also perfect. Seals were still good and the bearing filled with grease. I'm still okay with the fact I swapped more so I just know that won't be my point of failure. Now I'm thinking tear down over the winter to deal with new timing chains and wear pads. My car has 117K on it now but runs and looks perfect and I want to keep it that way : )

If you PM me your address I will calculate a shipping cost that you can cover and I'll send you my old bearing fo' free

I have a dual row out of a 2000 S with 104k miles. I replaced it when I bought the car. Bearing appears to be fine.

This seems to be a common theme. Maybe I should do a Poll "Was Your Double Row Bad?". Many of us < %1'ers replaced ours because of the hysteria. Anyway before I start a firestorm, yes I know there were some, but apparently not enough to cover the class action lawsuit.

I do like my new bearing and since I am selling it should help with the sale, maybe.
