[QUOTE="Shawn White, post: 997968, member: 70197"] I spoke to a few shops in my area on labor, prices ranged from 1,000 to 2,000. The shop that quoted 2000 included the OEM bushings though, they wouldn't install anything else. When I called one shop they had 3 tracs inline for the same repair. The first place I went to said the trick to get the blue locktite lose is to heat up the lower bushing retainers with a torch until they are almost glowing red. Then hit them with an impact. I was thinking about welding a nut to the base of each bushing so I get a better grip on them while using the impact. The shop that gave me the best advice does body lifts all the time, and he said the repair isn't fun. They said 8 hours of labor to use the daystar kit. [/QUOTE]
