Try contacting Tom454, he is the super guru in the Raleigh area, if he doesn't know someone who can do the job, then the job probably can't be done.

I would check with Boyette's in downtown Raleigh or check with Chris on whether he thinks Tiger can do this for you. Haven't heard from Tom454 in a while but last I did, he had alot of things in the works and his time was tight.

Cheeseral/Chuck:
If you're replacing w/ polyurethane CA bushings ... polys are rather easy to do yourself ... no press needed. Myself & many others here have done poly ... happy to explain if needed.
However, if you're replacing w/ RUBBER CA bushing (as OE) ... then I'd follow the others' suggestions for a local shop.
