Nice job sticking with it!! Hope that grease stays put, and doesn't migrate to the clutch assy from centrifugal force. A sponsor needs to hook you up with a good transmission jack.
Holy crap. A clutch swap in the NA cars is so easy. I can feel your frustration through the screen. When doing mine, I ended up putting the support bracket back into position backwards, if I remember correctly, so I had the pull it twice lol. Well done!
Matt I had to like and subscribe. Anyone who could do this job by himself deserves that! I had my Honda in to the local Honda dealer for an oil change. It was just off the factory warranty and every once in a while when I turned the key nothing happened but if I hit it again it would start. Anyhow they wanted $850 plus tax for the starter replacement job. I told them no thanks and went to Autozone & got a lifetime guarantee starter for $298.

M8, I use a motorbike scissor jack on wheels, to place over transmissions or engines when the car is has being just enough lifted to slip the housing under. Cheers!
I've been working on cars since I was a kid (with my dad), for the past 30 yrs. All of my vehicles for the past 16 yrs have been German cars. Although they're a huge PITA to work on, that satisfaction you get after getting things to work properly is woth the headaches. 💪
FYI, the part you referred to as the “dingbat” is the clutch guide tube. Typically it is recommended you replace this even though they look fine is that they have a special coating on them from the factory so you don’t need to grease it and risk grease getting thrown onto the friction surfaces.
First time watching one of your videos. That looks like a nightmare to do. I do have a tip for you,. You can use a motorcycle jack to hold the transmission. They are low profile VS an actual transmission jack. It will almost keep it leveled for you so you don't have to muscle it too much. You can also add straps to keep it from moving around too. It just makes something like this easier on you. Just in case you ever have to do a other clutch on the floor.
Well done to you!! That was a massive job! Now the 997 is nearly done, what next? Dump the M3 and a Cayenne project to allow you to loose the hillbilly pick up truck with the piano wheels ??!! 😎👍🏻😎
My 996 trans took a few hours also. Then I realized that the engine had dropped ever so little, the housing of the engine had dropped just below the cross brace. After a day of pondering why the transmission didn’t line up its was only then I realized I needed to raise the engine that was sitting on plywood sagged. Raising this a inch the transmission “slid” in
State of mind. Oh yah!!! My issue too. My state of mind had to change otherwise I would have to get the car to a shop and let someone else do it. NO!!! This helped me change the state in mind I was in.
I agree it is the most frustrating difficult job. I did it on just Jack stand in my garage and also rebuilt the slave cylinder. A trick to getting the bracket back on the pivot shaft is installing a stud instead of trying to install a bolt.
Good job man! That looks like a rough job!! I did a clutch on my 987S and it was surprisingly pretty easy. Apparently that's considerably easier than doing it on a 911. Hardest thing for me was getting the input shaft lined up properly.
I feel you on mounting the trans. I did a rear main seal and IMS bearing on a 996 (I imagine the set up is very similar) I thought I was gonna have a nervous breakdown on getting it mounted again. Anyway. Good work.
Not going with the Tilton twin is the right choice. The clutches are not sprung and it’s not an easy clutch to modulate and slip for a smooth engagement.
I know your pain. I've done many clutch and transmission swaps over the years but my 1999 Audi Quattro was the worse. I purchased it with a bad auto trans so swapped it out for a "good used one". Keep in mind these are super heavy since an AWD trans and I'm doing it on tall 6 ton jack stands. Well the "good used one" lasted 60 miles and failed. So I said screw it and did a manual conversion. Yes, again removing the heavy beast of the auto trans. Fortunately the manual trans is light and narrower so "easier" to man handle. I'm 60 years old now, I did this back when I was around 55. Needless to say that's the last transmission I'm removing. lol Been repair cars over 35 years now and never used a lift. All on jack stands and mostly outside and on pavement. Did a clutch on my 2002 Audi Quattro on the gravel. Unfortunately had to do it twice because of a defective throw out bearing.
@@matt13ross When I saw you struggling with it on the jack, I was like "poor guy" lol. Tried that a couple times then bought a transmission jack so I can articulate it to line up. Makes it a little easier.
DUDE!!!! That looked like 10 shades of hell to do. You're a better man than me as I would never have lasted through that. Nicely done. Oh... and new ink on the arm???
Another great video! We're happy to help. Lol, I normally preinstall those for customers but then you would have missed out on a funny part for your video!
@@matt13ross of course :). I'd be happy to! And also assist with your next go around of go fast parts and tuning! If you have e85 in your area, we should throw a set of 1100cc bosch injectors and a flash in there. It's amazing the difference between pump fuel vs E85 :).
@@matt13ross yes. With E85 you will improve the factor of safety ten fold over trying to make a lot of power on pump gas. These engines are pretty knock sensitive thus octane sensitive. E85 cures both, runs clean, cool and makes more power at the same time :). Lowering the engine on the sub frame allows you to change the injectors from the sides with the bumper/intercoolers off.
The risk of removing the gearbox without dropping the motor you can put a lot of stress on some wiring as well as the motor mounts. A shop did this to mine and within 50 miles I had a misfire due to the wires on the cam position sensors getting tugged. They had intermittent glitches and needed to be replaced. It also smoked my motor mounts.
@@matt13ross I don't know man but it's been happening on other channels too. I have to constantly check on them. You may want to say something on camera so your fans will know.
Hey! I'm finally getting caught back up! Shoulda got that transmission jack from HF I recommended ;-) Joking aside, good to see the progress made! Your determination is impressive as always!
@@matt13ross I hear that. I'm building my e36 track car in a 10x30 storage unit in Manayunk. I end up keeping the jack under the car most of the time since it's been on the quickjacks for months.
Matt, love your videos so much - Quick one though….have you considered swapping the ducktail and wing for a 997 Turbo rear hatch and wing? Personally I think they look so good on this car
I’ve been putting off replacing my handbrake cables on my mk3 mr2 as fuel tank needs dropping and I do not have a lift or even a quick jack, just axel stands. But after watching this I think it will be a doddle in comparison 😂

Condolences from a fellow hay fever plagued individual. Have you heard the one about the gynecologist who couldn't find work? He finally took a job as a house painter to help tide him over till he found a more suitable job, After his first day the owner of the painting co asks the other guys how the gyn did. They answered: oh, his work was terrific, but it was kind of weird. He painted the entire entrance hall through the mail slot. 😛 You can do anything you set your mind to but there might be easier methods. Dropping the motor - as you said...
@@martindelrio1891 Ok, quick answer: aside from the fact that the 911 is far and away the most successful sports car in history (60 years of having the motor in the wrong spot), just look at the 911's racing history. Actually, though the polar moment if inertia makes it harder to drive with the motor out back, for nearly everything else a vehicle needs to do on a track, having the motor out back is good! Acceleration, braking, etc vs the transition to steady state cornering (the hard part). And to top it off, removing a 911 motor is actually not that big a job to do. It's a bigger job in a 997 than a 1971 911T, but it's miles quicker than any front engined car of the same era (that I am aware of). Does that answer your question?
@@Steve_MFr i know that the 911 is a very good and successful race car and streetcar of course. but the engine is a nightmare to work on. yes, the best is to remove the engine completely. you dont have to do it very often because those mezger engines are very reliable. but still, for me the engine position in the car is a negative. i want to pop the hood and see the engine of my car. i want to SEE and check if there is something wrong, any leaks or anything like that. pop the hood of the 911. you will almost see nothing of the engine. even changing the header tank is a challenge. i respect those porsche cars. but its not for me. i stay with my front engine car. i dont have to remove the engine to change the head gasket and so on. its so much more simple.
You are a beast for sure Matt….yeah dropping the whole thing might have been better but then you definitely would have needed an extra set of hands! A two post with a an engine table, cats ass! I say all of this while I am under my 914 with Jack stands…the fear is real…LOL!
even a standard clutch job on jack stands which is what I did was horrible, this is insane lol I bet it would be even harder if the needle bearings were in there instead of the bushing for that pin.
Single mass flywheels don’t ruin drivability, try a GT3 or RS. They add character with the chatter at idle but massively improve engine response and gear changes.
I can totally relate i do everything my self aswell and the balancing act with multiple hydrolic jacks becomes an art lol rewarding at the end but the struggle is real some times but solo duable. by the way Harbor freight has this prety cool kinda compact transmission scisor jack that is a game changer would een ypur best friend with that trans removal and install i last used it on my benz ml500 , dropped the heavy aese trans and transfer case as one moved it back just enough to do the rear main seal.
Holy Hell that sucked! I have a two post lift and it still probably wold have sucked! Just did and transmission swap on my buddies V8 S-10 and I bought one of those Harbour Freight transmission lifts. Not the cheapest one but the middle of the road one. Lifts up and allows you to tilt forward and back along with left to right. I kept watching you use those two jacks and I was afraid you were going to drop that thing on yourself. The HF jack would have made it much easier I believe.
The harder it is to do, the more rewarding it is when it’s done. Even makes that late night beer taste better.
True that!
Heroic level of home garage mechanic work here.
Thanks for the inspiration brother. Mine has been sitting since the coolant lines failed. Been trying to muster up some motivation to tackle it
Do it man! Start driving that car again.
Pulling the engine isn't so bad, go for it!
Its honestly not bad to fix the coolant lines. We had a 997 turbo come into our shop and we welded the failure points and the car is solid now

FYI, the part you referred to as the “dingbat” is the clutch guide tube. Typically it is recommended you replace this even though they look fine is that they have a special coating on them from the factory so you don’t need to grease it and risk grease getting thrown onto the friction surfaces.
