I replaced my 14" rims and 185r tires with 16" and 215s and doing that revealed that I need new lower control arm bushings. I'm not sure I'm up for doing this myself because of the springs. Does anyone have any experience changing these out? Can they be done without removing the arm from the vehicle? How would a shop do this? I will probably replace them with the poly bushings from T3 since they would go in much easier than the 1 piece rubber ones.
