Exhaust and anti roll bar (rear) fitting

MOT failure! Due to the above. We require a centre exhaust section and rear anti roll rubber bushes. All easily obtainable, but are they easy to fit?
Help needed!
Can I fit them in the time it takes a pot noodle to cook?
Thanks
Nick.

I would like to know where the cheapest place to buy bushes and droplinks is. Anyone got a favourite supplier? I fancy doing the roll bar bushes and drop links all round.

Got my rear droplinks from an ebay supplier, half the price oof BongoBits (sorry guys - bought tons from you and love you but...). Arrived quickly, fitted perfectly, v nice bloke. He didnt have bushes (got those from Bongobits) but was keen to source and supply if I could give him product number (Catch 22 for me!).
Do you want me to try and dig up his name?

Be great if you could Mike, I am tempted to do all the bushes and drop links.
Thanks

Half my bongo is from Nippon! Cylinder head, brake pads, water pump, cambelt and tensioner, rear exhaust, all filters and belts.....excellent quality and prices...excellent service!
When I ordered my front and rear pads from him........the front ones arrived next day without the rear ones.......I rang him and he was very apologetic....rear ones arrived following day with a free fuel filter as compensation for 1 days delay!
I would take the van to an exhaust fitter to get the centre section fitted if I were you.......too many rusted up nasty joints to make it an easy job....they charged me £20 to fit rear and centre section.
ebay user name is nipponnev.......trading as Nippon Auto Parts.......01597 851149.
