I recall from my 986 days that swapping out the rear struts required the axles and a few of the rear suspension links to be disconnected.
I don't suspect it'll be a problem, Nick likely has all the required tools. But on my 986 there was a specific type of tapered-fastener removal tool (a.k.a a ball joint splitter) required to get those links off without damaging them.
One of these
I have one, so if you need it let me know. |
Excellent, thanks--yes, this seems right based on what I've seen. And I think the suspension is essentially identical to the 986.
