My personal opinion is that a skilled mechanic with the proper tools can change a LCA bushing in two hours. So, figure four hours for the two sides.

At $80. per hour that's $320 in labor. Parts should add another $80 or so. Add another $75 for the alignment.

The job should come in at $475.

The reason that it's higher is that it's a dirty, mean and ugly job that they really don't want to do.

I'm going to tackle it on the SD very soon.........together with guide rod bushings.
