Has anyone done these on their car before?
I need to look at these being done asap.
So anyone got any advice or rough guesses on prices?

interesting note on bearings, and uni joints... your drive train generates static via friction amongst other things.... make sure every factory earth strap is there, there is one to the gearbox and one to the diff I THINK?? anyway, if you don’t have one on lets say the gearbox, the only place for the charge to go is back to the engine block, via your bearings, leaving little blast marks along the way.... today’s useless tip :D

I'm thankful to say my dad is lending me the money to get this done.
Thanks for everyone's help
