My bushes are rooted, so just wondering how much of a DIY job is it to do the upper bushes? or better on a hoist?

Something I'd probably pay someone to do.. But go for your life if you have the right equipment.

There's only two bolts on each side
Definately able to do it on stands at home. Admittedly I was doing a whole diff swap at the time, which probably made it easier. I can't comment on the bushes but, never changed them before.

Pressing the bushes out and in isn't too hard, a press makes it easier but I've done them before in a vice (you just need 4 hands ).
The hardest part is pressing out the old ones, but a bit of RP7 helps things along. A bit of grease on the new ones and they slip in pretty easy.
