Daystar full bushing kit?
Anyone ever pick one of these up? How much of a PITA is installing all of these busings? I've got a seasoned 89 also.

I am Running the energy suspension bushings. I cant see the link that you have posted ( P.O.S. work computer) Ther energy suspension ones are awesome but a pita to do on the upper control arms axle side. I just droped my whole axle to beat them out. here is a link to the set I bought.

I just put the daystar control arm bushing's in and could'nt be happier with the improvement in handling on and off road.Also got rid of some pop,s and other noise's.Install was not bad,but I was also putting new coil's in so I was already right there for the bushing's.
I used a drill and a hand full of drill bit's ranging from 3/8 to 3/4.Just drill a series of hole into the bushing once the control arm's are out.Try to get the bit to grab a hold on the ca and it will grip it and ride the outer edge shredding the bushing right out of there.Ive also heard of using hole saw's but never tried it.
But I think it is well worth the effort,good luck
