The right rear wheel on my '00 Box S is making ugly noises on engine braking and entire wheel/brake assembly is a bit (~0.5 inch play at diameter) loose. That spells wheel bearing to me. Also, the previous owner did replace the left side at 78k and the car is now at 110, so the right's number must be up!

I've read that a special puller is used to do this on the car. Does anyone have one that they are willing to rent or loan to a DIY'er? I have access to a lift in Brooklyn, along with air tools. I'd be happy to assist with whatever job you need on your car also if an extra pair of semi-skilled hands and a lift will help you.

I love working on my own Porsche and have done several repairs and maintenances on it.

Thanks,
Cary

 

I managed to find a SIR Tool B90 bearing extractor for rent, and I'll have two weeks to use it. Does anyone else in the area need to do a wheel bearing job while the tool and lift are available?
