OK, so my next project is replacing the Control Arm Bushings (F&R) on the 93 wagon. Looks like my options are: IPD poly $181, FCP $87, Tasca $? (not listed). My search and research has resulted in lot's of questions. Do I really need a torch (I don't have one and really don't want to use one on the CA. I do have a sawzall, drill and bench vice. Is the IPD set worth the extra $ (easier to install or better ride or longer lasting?). I have new IPD poly sway bar bushings and Volvo/Monroe struts. Can I do this w/o using a machine shop? Maybe rent a press from the local parts store or rental place?
Thanks,
JP
