Boxster 986 IMS Bearing Replacement 2: Gearbox and Clutch Removal

This is the second video in a five part series addressing the relatively straightforward job of replacing the Intermediate Shaft Bearing (IMS) and Rear Main Seal (RMS) on a 986 Porsche Boxster. While replacing those two items is straightforward, actually getting to them is a different matter . . . In this second video I take off the remaining items to be able to remove the manual gearbox (transaxle) and remove the clutch.
