The factory rear cradle bushing can be kind of a pain to get out sometimes but replacing them definitely yields very good results in both handling and straight-line performance. |

Trying to find vids showing how involved the work is to remove. I would like this upgrade.

Did the cradle/subframe bushings in my garage using just hand tools and a propane torch. More info in this thread too:

^This. While I'm interested in improving all aspects of the car, I'm realistic enough to realize that I drive over rough road a lot more than I engage in spirited driving. Sadly, from what I've heard on here, only the most basic suspension mod can be done before it starts hurting ride quality. Hoping to get the facts in this thread.

Been in the hospital and recuperating for the last month. Still not quite a 100% but hope to be soon. Question: After installing the rear trailing arms and rear toe rods, will it need a rear wheel alignment? How hard is the installation with the car on jack stands?
