Default Bushing it up...

Anyone got some sort of idea what it would cost to get all the bushes replaced in the rear of my ute?

I figure that is what all the groaning and grinding is in the back of the ute. I know I haven't had them replaced in the two years I've had it.

In a ute? I doubt it. The rear leaf spring bushes are a motza.

ring up Nolathane and get a price for a rear end kit - pretty easy to do yourself, mate, particularly with a leaf spring rear end...
