92 Civic Master Bushing Set Install

[tonyroll]

My bushings are shot on my lower control arms up front and alot of the other ones look like they are going, so i figured i'd do the master bushing kit, theyb are oem bushings so they've been on there for 14 years. How much can i expect to pay to have the kit installed, here's the link to the kit.

this is gonna cost me isn't it

ok the kit has been ordered, $124 shipped in 2 days for free, not bad and the company was very knowledgable. I ordered the black one because they are a little softer and should be better for my car as a daily driver, a little more forgiving I guess. Looks like i'm gonna give my brother's shop a chance on this one, his boss couldn't quote me a price he said he'd have to see how long it takes him, hopefully he will take into consideration the fact that my brother works for him, it's only the two of them in the shop....i guess i'll also be getting an alignment also. Still anyone ever have a shop do this instal what kind of price would be good for this?

You can install these yourself cant you? Mine were rusted to shit so it was impossible, to even press out by machine so I had to buy all new arms w/ bushings. But aside from that, you got an awesome deal. Places I've seen those for decent prices were Summit, and ebay.. So pretty good find

i don't have a bushing press, i'm sure i could do it myself but without a lift and no air tools it really sucks to do it. I figure i do pretty much everything else myself so paying someone to do this bitch work is worth it. Suspension is pretty important to me so i'll spend money on this considering i'm fairly happy with my car power wise for now

damn, almost would have been easier to buy some Omni's and some others for the front and just slap em on.

Anyone have any imput on what this should cost, i know it's gonna be a pain in the ass, but I just wanted to get an idea

[Doughboy]

just call some local shops, or hit up honda-tech for locations in your area.

[tonyroll]

think I will

Most shops hate doing bushings installs. Taking out the old bushings is always a pain in the ass. Quotes that I've gotten ranged anywhere from $300 on up, and those were "hookup" prices. Maybe your brother can swing a deal.
