Hi Skier,

Did you do the rear subframe bushings yourself? If not, do you have a cost for the shop to do it, pls?

I did do them myself. But I did the inserts, which made it less challenging. If I had to press the factory bushings our, it would have taken a couple extra hours at least. I think I did the entire thing in about 3-4 hours, taking my time. A shop with a lift and proper tools for pressing bushings probably could do solid bushings in about the same time, or less, that I did mine. So they'd probably charge you 3-4 hours at whatever their rate is in your neck of the woods.
