Re: $1183 for labor!! 200 87

Scott -- another approach for the rear end is to rent the rear trailing arm bushing tool. Duane Hoberg, among others on the Brickboard, rents this tool at a very fair price. Includes instructions. The job is manageable with hand tools and stout forearm muscles. Then just remove the other bars and rods and take them to your local auto machine shop for them to press in your bushings. I've done this twice for my two 245s, and I recall being charged $50 or so in labor.

The motor mounts are pretty easy to replace. I'm sure the archives has a good procedure or three.
