fitting bushes etc

Hi,

THe bushes on the back of my 100 quattro need replacing. I have all the bushes, is it worth trying it myself or paying someone else to do it?

On ebay you can get a 6 ton press for about £50

or a 20 ton press for £130

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/20-Ton-Industr...3A1%7C294%3A30

I'd also like to replace the bushes on the Series 2 Audi 80, which is a lot easier to work on.

Would the 6 tonne press be OK???

Cheers

Steve

10T+ at Robins and it will go in the back of an avant, I have acsess to 50T+ and lathes etc for bush and bar ends for drifts.

Pm or contact me with a plan and we can go from there.

Gib - Lurking in the background and as usual comes up with a sensible plan! (put a build thread of your Saab on here, Big Nige has a Mazda....)

As you know how long the 80 Sport has been on my drive, it won't be too soon (bit strapped until Holiday in August)!!!
