Chrysler Repair: Sub Frame (Cradle) Bushings: 97 LH body, front wheel drive, power train


Question
Are these easily replaced? Can I do this in my garage? I've never worked on the front end on a front wheel drive before and am needing new ones badly, I am getting a wobble (doesn't happen all the time just after taking a corner and a turn in the opposite direction cures it.) from my car and it feels like the back but everything is tight. It feels lazy around corners and I am very concerned. Is this something I can do or do I have to take it to the shop?

Answer
Hi Shayne,
It requires an engine support that goes across the top of the engine compartment and a floor jack as well, as you are basically going to have to dismantle the suspension, support the power train and change out the bushings from the cradle with nothing sitting on it. There are 8 pages in the manual about removing/installing the cradle but it is too lengthy to type in. But I will be pleased to xerox and postal mail you those 8 pages. If you send back three 44-cent stamps to cover my costs that would be appreciated. Let me know a postal mailing address if you want me to do that.
