    watts linkage

    Just checked and the bushes in my watts linkage definitley done. How big a deal is it to change them ? Any tips before I start a whole handling in my drive ? Also prices seem high, £45 for the centre bearing and £42 each for the top and bottom bushes, does this eem right or is there an alternative ?
