your looking at about 120 for the parts then you have to have them pressed out and labor around 60 an hour i wild gess up there i would say to take it and have it done rufly $600- $700 but you could do it your self for like $150 or so

It isn't too bad to do yourself but after you do the job make sure to get an alignment as everything will be out of whack. Take your time and spend a day on it.

I reciently replaced the bushings on my 99. The MOOG bushings were less than $40. Having them pressed out and in was $45. The hardest part was waiting around while waiting to get them pressed. If you need shocks, do it now too.

I replaced my complete front suspension last summer. You didn't say if you have 4WD or RWD. Mine is RWD and I purchased Energy Suspension bushings complete kit from Summit Racing and orderd Moog ball joints from Amazon. Cost for all parts was less than $300. I did the work myself over the weekend. Not difficult just time consuming. If you need help let me know and I can talk you through it. It is factory tight now!!
