This is the second part of the IMS and 2nd gear replacement project on the 986. In part one, we removed the transmission and replaced the IMS. In this video, we are replacing the 2nd gear components and reinstalling the transmission. This was a challenging but fun project! I hope this helps you with your projects.

Thank you for such a wonderful capture, documentation, and explanation of the process. You surely nailed this one, top notch work, clear explanation of the work, why, and the methodology process you followed. You made the work look easy, not many of us are as talented as 1st timers with such a big job.
This is incredibly well timed for myself going to be doing this for my 6speed thank you so much for getting this together
You make it all look so easy! My 550 doesn’t even need this done but I want to do it after watching you. I love my Boxster S 550 Spyder! These videos are fantastic ! Thanks man!
Dang this is super cool dude! Definitely going to use this for reference when the time comes!!! Thank you!
What site are you using that shows the exploded view, part number and description. Btw, video 1 is super helpful as I’m going to replace my clutch and flywheel.
