Does $45 per arm sound about right for replacing my bushings?

73 charger and the arms are off the car.

I had a guy do mine and he charged me $40 for the pair.

Uppers or lowers?

Do you have a press?

If that's labor, probably worth it.

Although I personally need the $160 for other parts.

If it's parts and labor, it's a steal.

I wouldn't do the labor for $40.

That sounds like 1/2 hour per, and unless you've done it a hundred times, it's gonna take longer.

What about ball joints? Might ruin them getting arms off.

Is this price just for pressing, after you've removed the arms?

I just got done disassembling mine, pressing all the new ones in and putting the arms back in.

This weekend, I'm putting the disk spindles and lower BJs in.
