Ok, so I just finished my new upper trailing arm bushing and ball joint replacement,(Thanks Dennis) no more squeaking! Next on my list is to replace the torn driver side tie rod boot. This seems easy enough although the bentley says to have the tie rod pressed out. It looks like an easy fix but if I have to have the tie rod end pressed out just to replace the boot on the shaft then this considerably raises the PITA factor. Anybody done this before? Dave
