Is there anyone who can help with this project or anyone who i can pay to do it. I just dont have the alignment tools and i am not paying 900 for the stealer...any help would be nice...thanks

Ive done this all with handtools & a reciprocating saw

Get Poly replacements.
It may be worthwhile to rent the pulling Tool from bimmerworld. I would next time.

That's still alot for the work and parts needed.

If you do a search, someone made a DIY step-by-step. You can make the tool for doing the job for about $6 in parts from Home Depot.

$450 is not a bad deal given the bushings which are $75 and then alignment after (since the toe gets whacked) about $90.

However on a seperate note, I will be changing my RTABs shortly (possibly even next week) with the poly bushings (yearly job for me). You are more than welcome to drop by and see whats being done to get a better idea. Takes me about 3 hours to do the entire thing.

If you can change your own suspension, this is not hard at all. I use the appropriate tools instead of any sawz all (have used it in the past though) so it the job is quite simple and stress free.
