i was planning on installing the energy suspension master bushing kit on my prelude this summer and was wanting to do it myself. however, i talked to a guy who owns a local honda performance shop and he said he's done it before and it's a real bitch (which i knew beforehand).
unfortunately, from his experience, he said that his 30-ton press had trouble getting some of them out. i thought that was rediculous but that's what he told me. he also said he charges $500 to put those bushings in.
so my dilemma is how i'm going to do this. i'll be damned if i pay that much to get them installed and i don't have a press. would i be able to disassemble my suspension and take all the parts he needs so he can do it his place (therefore cheaper since he won't have to take apart and put back together the suspension)? or have any of ya'll been able to do it without a press? any tips?
i definately need some suggestions on a solution to this because i'm at the point where if i can't get them done by myself or for fairly cheap, then i'll just sell them. thanks.
