Not sure if you can get to these parts with the car simply jacked up, as I havn't done this job myself, but I don't see why not.
I got the diagram from a posting on another boxster forum from when a fellow was helping someone else with the same problem you speak of. I would try to ask your question on a technical forum like Renntech.org to gather more thoughts before tackling the job. Good luck.

Where did you manage to get the diagram and diagnosis from - i could do with getting a book like this myslef but not sure if they have a Haynes manual type thing for a Porsche.
On another forum a person suggested the rubbers/bushes on the coloumn itself? Does this make sense do you know?
vipola - that problem gettin in and out of the car is your control arms. I had the same problem plus you could hear it going over bumps. Ive had them replaced and you wouldnt know now othe than a bit of squeeking at the back as they have not been replaced.
Thanks again
