Trying to come up with a plan on renewing the suspension on my ute. (AU2 XR6)
Not keen to go polyurethane or aftermarket rubber, so have gotten some quotes from the local dealer on genuine stuff: Front: Lower Control Arm bushes - $504.25 for all of them (both sides) Top Control Arm bushes - $79.95 for all Rear: Rear Leaf bushes - $76.15 for all 8 Front Lead bushes - $88.04 for both sides This doesn't seem to bad to me, especially since I could most likely get better prices with a bit of hunting around. Would like to hear from people who have gone down a similar path... Thanks, Mark |

and those prices are plus fitting too?
or are you doing it all yourself? can you buy a complete lower control arm with all bushes fitted, brand new from Ford? might be cheaper than buying all the components, then paying for the pressing in/on etc, and then paying someone to fit them to the car too. and most likely a wheel alignment after thats all done... a guy i met a couple of months ago took his AU ute to ford and had all of the suspension bushes and 2 struts, 2 shocks supplied and fitted at Ford. it cost him $2600 all up.
