Volvo Control Arm Bushing
During my last visit to the dealer for an oil change, they told me that the lower control arm bushing on my front suspension is torn and needs to be replaced. In typical car dealer fashion, the parts cost $150 and the installation costs $700 because they say it takes 6 hours of labor to complete. Is there anyone out there who has replaced the control arm bushings on a 2004ish S60 and might be able to offer some advice on completing this? Some sites mention special tools being needed to press out the old bushings, or simply taking the control arm to the dealer to have them pressed out for you.
