Job done

And what a PItA!

Had bush pressed at a tire shop. Paid more than I wanted $40, but it was my fifth of sixth stop finding someone that could do it.

Hindsight I prop ably should have just bitten the bullet and removed the two water hoses.
Hardest part by far was getting the top two bolts aligned onto the bracket. I also recommend taking off the bottom bracket studs off instead of just the nuts.

As the day went on, it definitely got harder to squeeze under the car.

Felt like a contortionist

Shop that swapped bush said the one he pulled was fine, but there was actually a third of the rubber missing. Car definitely feels tighter.

Patience is a must if doing this job
