Thanks for the pointers, guys
It's the 2.5, 5spd. I've done clutches, just never on the Boxster. CV boots are good. I'll do a visual inspection of the IMSB flange for leaks, but not touching the OEM dual row bearing unless I see something. Will check the RMS and probably replace it, regardless.
I stopped by HF today and picked up an engine support bar and some odds and ends. Probably overkill, but why not?
I have a triple square set on the way, but still looking at clutch kits. It would be nice to find one with the disc, pressure plate, DMF, alignment tool, throw out bearing and all bolts, but that may be asking a lot.
I hope to make it as quick and painless as possible as the car is now my DD. I'll be sure to post results!
Thanks again!
