Hi all, Had the car in for service today on which they found quite a few jobs that need doing, what i am after knowing is how much of the following is doable at home to avoid the garage labour cost/s,. Front wishbones, Front ABS rings, Rear trailing arm bushes Rear pads (will the pistons push in or do i need a tool to wind them in), I have most tools and a vice but know press. Car is 03 reg.

Front wishbones... polybush - 3 hours if you're good with the spanners ABS rings - do at the same time as the wishbones Rear pads - easy, yes, they push in. Dunno about the trailing arm bushes tbh :)

Delta link bushes, it's quite quite to strip the rear end own 1 hour ish then it's just removing the bushes. See t5pete thread has a guide
