Any suggestions as to where to get my old bushings pushed out and new bushings pressed in that won't charge an arm and a leg ?
All parts are off the car already.
Pedders wanted $600 which is insane for an hours use of a press.

Every workshop has a press, it's ist a matter of getting someone not so dumb they press shit out the wrong way

Try taking the LCAs out yourself and reinstalling. That will save another $2-300 off the price.
EDIT wait. That price is off the car ? That's like $600 p/h ? Wow nice one.
PS it requires alittle experience to push out the inner opposing bushes.
u mad?

I got quoted $100 per corner if I take off the parts and bring it to them. that's $400 with me taking the parts out.
Pedders as well, but in WA.
stupidly expensive

I needed the bushings in the rear pair of N+ coils replaced. Got them replaced with the newer red coloured ones for $185. Local mechanic.
