Poly Bushing Installation 200 1993

I ordered the front and rear IPD Poly Bushing kits (on sale now).

Took it to the shop today to get them installed. They ended up replacing all of the bushings except the front trail arm bushings and front A arm front bushings.

They said that those bushings still looked great in the car, they never changed them in 20 years of working on 240s, and did't have the right presses to get it done with a reasonable amount of labor.

Thoughts?

Aside from a couple of the other front A arm bushings, they thought the others looked pretty good. So I suspect that thought this was all a waste.

btw...car feels much tighter now.
