Rear suspension bushings installation cost?
I bought the Energy Suspension Master Bushing kit and managed to take apart and re-install the front control arms (with a little trouble) myself. However the rear seems a little hard to get to, especially getting the bolt that attaches the control arm to the chassis. I asked a few places and they quoted anywhere from 3.5-5hrs of labor to do the job. Does that sound accurate? Once the car is up on a hoist and with the right tools I can't imagine it would take that long.
How much did it cost for you to have your rear control arm bushings replaced?

There's only two bushings worth doing Char. Trailing arm (this is the big one) and the lower shock mount bushing in the LCA. Otherwise the OEM stuff is well designed with very little rubber. If nothing is rusted solid figure 3 hours for the job max(for a tech with a lift and good tools) including pressing bushings. You will need an alignment too.
