<![CDATA[Front bushes]]>Anyone had to replace the front bushes? Mine are kinda, well, very loose and will need doing sometime soon(next month to be precise), just wanting a rough idea of the job in hand or the price to get it sorted (I won't be doing it).

I rekon you be looking somewhere between 100-200 from garage, depending on their rates :(

That doesn't sound too bad to be honest, I'd imagine the place I bother would charge around £100 to me as I'm there quite often :lol:

Was fairly straightforward. Issues may be the droplink nuts which love to rust solid & ball joint condition. Other than that, the other bolts that hold on the control arm are generally ok to crack off.
