98 GSR Issues
Took car to get an oil change. They noticed my 2 front motor mounts are bad,front links boots, L inner tie rod & trailing arm bushings all bad. The prices they gave parts/labor:mounts $ 520, links boots I belive is the sway bar $380, l-inner tie rod end $ 410 & trail. arm bushings $ 450. Of course an allignment which is crazy $150. I have a few places that charge like $79.
As far as the mounts would it be cheaper to go w/ hasports or stay oem ? Also, since they mentioned trailing arm bushing. Would it be cheaper/better to just get some blox etc..lca which should have the new bushings of what they re replacing anyway .
Thanks for your time
Any advise would be greatly appreciated

aftermarket for that stuff should be okay, rear trailing arms the bushing is attached to it as I recall, so you buy the whole thing. This is not included in the polyurethane kits.
Rear motor mount is also probably bad, and is a bit of a PITA to change.

aftermarket motor mounts is recommended,,, also for the trailing arm bushing, i just saw a good brand on ebay,, (dont get oem since you know that they crack overtime) dont get the poly bushing INSERT coz its PITA to do and they make noise.
