Well this is a 2001 model and I believe it is a double roller, Will two 6204 bearings fit? what is the alternative option?

If there is one maybe I can offer it to him.

If it's an '01, it likely has a single row IMS bearing.

Ummmmm "will two 6204 bearings fit?" Are you kidding?

You are clearly lost on this procedure, and have added that you're trying to do this as cheaply as possible.

Porsche's are not cheap cars- while they can be cheap to purchase these days (used), they are not cheap to own.

I get that you're trying to save a "friend" money here, and that's fine and dandy, but what kind of favor are you going to be doing him when his motor blows up after the fact?

If you're not willing to learn to do this the right way, obtain the proper tools, and get rid of this "as cheap as possible" mindset, you need to tell your friend to find someone who knows how to do this properly, and won't do it while trying to save a buck.
