P-car related? Definitely the clutch on my 944.

Worst was front hub on my Dodge Ram. Temps in the teens,( couldnt get it in the garage at the time..) Tented front of truck off with tarps and heaters running. Basically useless.. Hub bolts are a complete ***** to get at behind the steering knuckle. The hub itself was completely rusted in. Impossible to hammer it out. Soaked for a day with penetrant. Torched to heat it, no go. Ended up having to use an angle grinder to cut the hub bearing into pie shaped segments to get it out. ( without damaging the axle....). Went through about 8 cutoff wheels. Pretty sure that job took a year or two off my life.
