Anyone have any shops they'd trust to do the job right. Three I have spoken to asked me how many bushings was that. Gave me great confidence they'd get it right.

I used Euroquipe in St Charles. I think they were a little more expensive than the cheapest (almost $600 in labour) but otherwise do a good job.

No offense but $600 is over the top. Randy has indicated that if I make the 8 hour round trip to Toledo, he and I can do it in 2 hours plus $100 for his time. Personally, while I value my time a great deal, I am tempted do this for the educational experience alone. Reason is I have access to a lift anytime and may want to know how the subframe comes apart for purposes of a later subframe reinforcement install. This gives me a chance to see Randy's place and view how the parts/kit he has developed goes in.
