Has anybody performed the IMS retrofit on their Boxster? Mine went without incident

until the installation of the new hub flange. As per the instructions, the hub flange

was started using 3 M6x25 bolts, tightening in a star pattern to slowly draw the new

hub flange in. However, the bearing support/center stud popped out of the back and the

threads on the stud were nowhere near coming thru the flange. I carefully removed the

hub flange,and pulled the bearing support/center stud back into the bearing. I can't

see a way for this to work now since the center stud is no longer "pressed" into the

bearing. Anybody come across this issue. I guess I'll have to contact LN Engineering.

I had the LN IMS installed on my '99 Boxster without incident. I would strongly advise you to contact LN with this issue and not rely on anyone else's advice.

I called LN Engineering and left a message concerning the retrofit kit.

Charles called back, left a message with some possible solutions.

I extracted the new bearing, and discovered the center shaft could be

removed and inserted by hand.

Charles was kind enough to offer overnight shipping of another kit.

I will be sending the original back to LN Engineering.
