Like I said earlier you don't worry about swapping bushes in these, you replace the whole arms. The effort required to swap bushes in a VE your better off replacing the whole component. VEs are not like Gen IIs where swapping bushes and joints is easy enough.
I think he's referring to the K frame bushes mentioned in a prior post by @Lex .

OK, I was thinking he was talking about swapping arm bushes that the OP mentioned he was going to do earlier. I didn't realise K frame bushes were a high wear point? Especially since arm bushes don't seem to wear in VE's.

Well floored the car on the highway on way home and she went into limp mode. Didn't see what code, just cleared it.

1 limp mode in what would've been 3 or 4 prior to engine mount change, so I can't help but feel I should do something with the loom still...

Maybe replace the other engine mount and see how it goes.

Should be able to see if the trans mount needs replacing with visual inspection.
