Is there a specific tool needed for taking the old bushes off which is very expensive?  :huh:
just use an SDS hammer drill on chisel action!... it works a treat!

Be aware guys, if you are going to put the VRS bushes in the rear, then your Indy will have to make a specific tool to do so.  The standard pressing tool will not work with these.

Find a respectable speacialist and you shouldn't pay more than £180 on labour.
