Well, not really that, but there doesn't seem to be a good thread on all the mods and repairs people have done to their cars. Might help someone down the road when they hit a roadblock on similar tasks. the goal is not just maintenance tasks, but problem things that people might search on when they get into trouble

'92 Cab
Clear corners
Front hood struts
Engine lid struts
cut air box like cup style
Suspension swap to Turbo springs, Bilstein HD shocks
Replaced heater hose by rear tires
swapped fuel pump
repaired broke cab top support and put back together
cab top motor cable shortening
swapped radio--- not done with entire rewire- just swapped into the birds nest already there
Rear seat delete removed and lap belts installed.
Replaced reference/crank position sensor with new style connector

keep in mind... what I'm after is kind of a DIY list, so if people run into a problem then can see who has done the same thing and be able to possibly ping that person for how they solved it.

Most maintenance items, like oil, valves, distributor cap/rotors, plugs are already well documented.

Thanks for starting this Hawk.

People move on though...

The 964 DIY section could be 10X bigger if we collected all the detail threads that already exist on the 964 forum. I search for different topics all the time, but I have to wade through so many random threads to find what I'm looking for (lots of thread titles - even if they are VERY helpful- are poorly named).

There's gold in this forum for sure...maybe RL needs to hire some college kids for the summer to organize the material?

It simpler for me to list the parts I have *not* repaired, replaced or simply sourced (I bought the car after 6 years in a field, remember):

Pedal cluster
Engine (not counting ancilliaries)
Gearbox
Clutch

I have touched, repaired, mounted everything else.
