I have a 2000 986s and my passenger side bearing started making noise at about 35k also. The job can be done if you have ball joint tool and take it to a machine shop and have them press it out. Not that hard of a job. I had mine done by a shop, and I bought the bearing for $50 bucks. I went ahead and had them do both sides just in case. Also if i remember correctly, an alignment is not required if you do not separate one of the ball joints on the suspension. The shop that did it for me, has done many Boxsters and this is a common issue. They did both sides in about 3 hours and charged me about $400
