My 1985 Porsche 924.
I bought this car in early 2020 and finally started working on it. It sat for 12 years and it's in a rough shape. I'm going to do full restoration and record it all. I have a very litlle mechanical experiance and some of this I'm doing for the first time so if you have some suggestions and advice please comment.
In this episode I tackle rear axle, removing suspension and brakes completely. I'll do complete restoration on these parts as well. I added bolt sizes and describe basic steps so if you're doing it for the first time as I did you can save some time and have it all in one video you can follow. Process should be very similar with Porsche 924s and 944 models as well. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.

    Great job! Love that you are tackling hard stuff. One thing to think about for all of the pieces that you are taking out is to look into dry ice blasting to clean parts up. That is amazing technology and removes all dirt, but no material.

    Thank you, Jeff! I've seen that on KZread, looks amazing... But I don't think that service is available where I live. I'm currently building big blasting cabinet so I can fit all these parts in.

    Odd as it sounds, if memory serves me well, the wheel spacers are a factory item on the rear of these and 944's of early offset. If you change the wheels for different offsets, then it's up to yourself if you plan to keep the spacer

    Well done, that’s a big heavy lump to get out on your own. What condition are the two sets of rubber mounts in? Mine were completely shot, and unfortunately replacements are expensive! Good progress :)

    Thank you! It was properly stuck too. I naively thought once I get all bolts out it will just drop. I was levering it out for over an hour. Rubbers look decent at the first glance, once I get dismanteling I'll see how bad they are. Hopefully just some rubber conditioner. Looks like rear suspension overall will be much more expensive that the front.

    As you can see I used an impact wrench one mine, but you can do it with a bit of heat and a breaker bar, or a large pipe on your wrench. If everything else fails you can always cut the nut of but be careful not to damage the threads. Good luck!
