bushes are the hard rubber pieces that seperate the moving metal components that rub. As for the cost, it depends on which bushes are worn.
Get it checked with a mechanic I say...
Pedders said that to my friend and it was just a nut loose that caused the brushing to come loose. It cost 10$ to fix instead of the 280$+ that they wanted to charge him, as well as changing the CV joints that "needed changing" he had changed the month before..
not long got my all bushes replaced at pedders. cost me just over $600. feels great now though!
how are bushes expensive? little rubber things. no way id pay $600.

Euratheane bushes will give you a slightly harsher ride but a better response if you are into handling
cant say I've had the best or most reliable experiences with pedders, they seem a little keen to change parts. I would always seek a second opinion especialy is the quoted price seems a little high. :cool:
Pedders told me that my coilovers would need to be fully rebuilt andt ehy would need to be sent back to asia to be fixed and that there was no bush inside my coilover. All they needed was the bushes replaced wich i did myself and that cost me $52 and i did it all myself. spankers.
do you know what bushes exactly are they refeering to, also was it in the front or rear ?Quote:
