What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

The mount I pulled from my 2000 3 years ago was gone, I mean gone. No rubber connected. The 01 and 02 are probably the same. Yours too.

That's something I hadn't thought of doing. I'm guessing you mean the front mount? Is that also referred to as the center mount? What do you think of the URO mount? It's cheap enough, but how long would it last? Should I go with the Lemforder?

P.S. I'm also thinking of replacing the oil cooler o-rings at the same time. Worth it or best to leave them be?

I just finished changing out all of this:



Every rubber part in th suspension along with upgrading to ROW M030. It is going to the alignment shop in the morning. I can hardly wait...

How long did it take you?

Hard to say exactly as I only worked on it Friday nights after the kids went to bed. That makes for a lot of starting and stopping. I'd say about 4-5 hours a wheel. I will say it was really straight forward. I never got hung up or stuck I just work kinda slow. My scissor lift made things a lot easier as well.

i wouldn't touch the oil cooler unless its leaking. The mount...at least look at it. If you are doing the WP. you should pull it anyway. Tell us how it goes

When I did my WP/Thermo I also did the Oil heat exchanger 'O' rings while the coolant was drained. To me it made sense as those little bugger (a few dollars) can cause a lot of mess. The originals were hard and somewhat flattened
