Searched, no dice... how much is labor for full bushing replacements?
My Z is an 04... front feels fine but I know the bushings on the knuckle end of the LCA/are shot; rear clunks a little bit if I jam the throttle in a high gear. I want to go with the full Whiteline kit... how much would that be in labor hours, and are there bushings that are not worth upgrading if they are good?
I searched and found a lot about which bushings to go with but not how much labor is entailed in a full replacement.

Your best bet is taking off all of the arms yourself if you have the means and bringing them somewhere. Not quite sure which bushings you are replacing, but its mostly just the dissassembly/assembly that takes the time. I pressed out old bushings in the front (3 pairs) and pressed in new ones in about an hour. Dissassembly, however, took me several hours

It took me over 10 hours to get all rear arms and links off, front arms and sub-frame. It was a *****. I had a shop put the bushings and ball joints in for less than $200. I would imagine at least another 6-hour labor charge, if they did (dis)assembly. Saving $500+ was worth it.

So you want all the bushings replaced or just the front end. The diff and subframe bushings get really expensive, I charge $200 for just those two bushings. I shop would charge a hell of a lot more.
