You list a 2003 Boxster and a 1999 Boxster. Which one are you talking about? One has a dual-row IMSB and the other a less-reliable single-row IMSB.

Your 2003 should have a single row IMSB. IIRC Raby's biggest difficulty was designing a puller to extract the dual row IMSB, which requires much more force to pull it out.

My dual row IMSB was still full of grease when I removed it at 53K miles last June. As I did a self-install I didn't send the old bearing in to LN for inspection (no warranty on self-installs).
