I've done it once on a LandRover Discovery and it took awhile but you could definitely feel the difference once fitted. Hopefully using the workshop press should speed things up a bit.

Finally I can work on the car! It's all kicking off tomorrow. Apart from what can be seen i've also got MTF, clutch slave cylinder and brake fluid to change among others.

The bushes were my first buy here on Ludegeneration.
They are for a 4th gen but I believe all fit except one pair of bushes. It is a complete kit.

So yesterday and this morning was super busy. Changing the clutch I realised the sump was fractured so that was replaced with a spare off of a h22a. All that's left now is the rest of the polybush kit and coilovers!

Hasta luego

The worst bit is that it genuinely is a selfie!
