This is a relatively common upgrade. Landseer just did it, with some documentation here: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...read-blog.html

Mr. Kotter,
Mike would like to participate in this thread but in the past when he tried taking apart a transmission parts wound up everywhere and he was left with a pile of gears and springs and levers that looked like a 100 pound watch blew up in the garage. Please excuse him from this thread.

When you guys get these things apart....I'll take some pictures of pieces and damage that need to be looked for....if you guys think that would help.

The "mechanics" of these gearboxes is, indeed, simple. The tough part is figuring out what needs to be replaced and why.

That would be extremely helpful, thank you Greg. I studied the gears a bit yesterday. Everything is still installed in the case and does not rotate but I was able to study the wear on the gears in comparison to the photos from the other thread. I am still in the learning/observation phase.
I am glad that you stopped by and hope that you will keep us going in the right direction.

One step closer......I finally got a work space that will be climate controlled.
Judging from Landseer's pics.....I am missing a few things.

I have been working on a couple of these pictures in another program trying to label the gears, the hub, the shift sleeve...etc. It is a work in progress.
I think in the third picture you can see a portion of the synchro.
