Hi there,

I have just dismantled the rear of the car and took all the bits to my local garage where they pushed all six bushes out in aroud 10 Min for twenty quid, I recon for this money not worth the aggro of buying a new tool unless u plan on doing this job regulary, I plan to but poly bushes from the group buy and push them back in with the use of a vice, hopefully i will then never need to replace them again.

Good luck with it !!!!

Chris.
