photos for 968 cluth replacement
Its very simple.
Tools to be used should be 24mm, 17mm, 13mm, 10mm sockets/wrenches, triple square set, cheesehead sockets, flywheel lock
Best way to do this is to remove the cat.
Disconnect battery
Disconnect the 02 sensor behind the intake manifold, cut the tie wrap the holds the wire against the oil filler.
Use 13mm sockets and wrenches to disconnect cat
Remove starter, I like to leave it hooked up
Remove slave cylinder using 13 mm sockets and leave it hanging.
Remove the side window using 13mm wrench/socket
Disconnect torque tube coupler by removing rubber circular grommet under tube
Use cheesehead to remove bolt holding coupler and slide the coupler back
Once coupler is free, remove 10mm bolts holding clutch guide by the pressure plate
Loosen 10mm bolt holding fork needle pin in place
Remove fork needle pin using appropriate cheesehead
Remove fork
Use appropriate triplesquare to remove bolts holding pressure plate
Turn engine clockwise using 24mm deep socket on the crack to get to all bolts
Your pressure plate should be free, remove pressure plate and disk
Use flywheel lock on bellhousing to keep MDMF from turning
Use triple square to remove bolts holding DMF to crank
The installtion should be reverse.
I might have forgotten a thing or two but it should be pretty accurate. Let us know if you run into a problem. This is all from memory.
Regards.

Do you still have the photos for the 968 clutch replacement? I tried the link you posted but it does not appear to currently exist. I am getting ready to do my 968 clutch and photos are always a big help. Nonetheless, the write-up will probably suffice--very nice job.
