    Hi! The front anti-roll bar bushings of my car (Mitsubishi Lancer 2003) needs replacement. How much do you think a garage would ask for parts and service? Thanks guys.

    Dunno Mitsu prices for parts, but I would guess EUR30 for both mounts (bushings) and 30-45min labour at whatever rate.

    2nd hand anti roll bushes would be a complete disaster. Hard enough to ensure they are tight enough the first time.

    Anti roll bar bushes are a wearable part so would not be a part to buy second hand.

    They are barely even €10 each new and 10 mins would have them fitted.
