I was looking around and found the Victory tool but it's around 100 bucks which seems like a waste for a one-time (hopefully) job. In addition, is 50K miles too low to worry about replacing the trailing arm bushings? I just replaced front control arms/bushings/tie rods/sway links and was going to get an alignment done. But then i was thinking that i might want to replace RTABs as well since this requires an alignment too. Bushings are cheap and DIY does not look that bad if you have the tool. And finally, anybody knows where i can buy Meyle heavy duty RTABs?
