    iX Control Arm & Radius Arm Bushings?

    We just put new tires on Jenny's iX and we were told it's not going to hold an alignment because the radius arm bushings are worn out. When we bought the car the woman said the control arm bushings need to be replaced cause they're cracked. Are these the same things? How difficult is it going to be to replace all these bushings? I do have a press. How much is it going to cost? I know CAB's are more expensive for the iX. Any good write-ups? I really need to buy a Bentley.

    It's a bitch to take arms of the car where ball joint is, but repressing shouldn't be a problem. That's in fact if we're talking control arms.

      radius bushing? well, since the CAB is pretty much the only thing down there, that must be what they are talking about. since you plan on leaving the car mostly stock, I'd look for a set of centered M3 bushings. they are solid rubber unlike the crappy stock "webbed" style so they should last quite a bit longer.
