Re: how do i replace the front anti rollbar bushes
Front end in the air, put it on axle stands. Take the wheels and wheelarch liners off. You should be able to get at them now (just one nut+bolt, you'll need to stop one side from spinning while you turn the other). Then you've freed up the metal clip which you can take off. The bushes will now pull off.
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Seeing as you're changing the bushes I would replace the drop links as well Dave!
