Default Re: poly bushing question..... (whfla)

I replaced all the rubber bushings front and rear with poly on my '88. I have a 1 ton press so I was able to get some of the old rubbers out with little problem. Some of them can be a real PITA but, I got creative and got them all out and the new ones in.

I got the front and rear kit from PST for around $400.00.

Good luck and be careful the springs on these cars can store alot of energy.

Mike.
