Hard Rubber bushing kit install tips
This is what im going to do before i start should i do this? I was going to soak all the bolts with pb blaster and give it a few whacks with a hammer.
Im going to get the bushings pressed in at a shop. Just going to take em off and put em back on myself.
Tools i have :
1/2 impact
impact sockets
air compressor
jack
jack stands
pb blaster
hammer
prybar
Anything else im missing or should need? And anyone give me tips who has experience doing this, like is it extremely hard?

If your car is lowered have the RTA bushings clocked for your normal ride height. If you're having a shop do the pressing, you'll have to specify to them that they clock that specific bushing.
When reassembling, preload the bushings before you torque them down. Follow the torque specs from the FSM.
Get an alignment immediately after completion.
