    Changed the anti roll bar bushes today, sweet mother of god never anticipated such a difficult time for a simple part change. Took maybe 4 hours altogether, no access whatsoever had to come from the left, a bit of the right, on top, use different extensions, wrenches, remove a heat shield, plastic panels in the wheel arches. Got a few cuts and scrapes along the way but it's done now, I enjoy saving money doing the work myself but next time I'll leave it to the professionals for that specific repair

    Some times there's a alot easyer way.

    Eg 02ish avensis. It's easyer to drop the rear subframe and it's a breeze.

    I resisted. Took ages on one. Dropped subframe and done other one in less time than the first.

    Yeah I've seen a lot of talk of people just dropping the subframe to change them but I've never done that and wouldn't want to damage a number of components for the sake of a rubber bush
