To change the front sub-frame bushes on a Nissan Note, first, securely raise and support the vehicle on jack stands. Remove the front wheels for better access, then unbolt the sub-frame from the chassis. Use a suitable tool to press out the old bushes and install the new ones, ensuring they are properly seated. Finally, reassemble the sub-frame, torque the bolts to the manufacturer specifications, and reinstall the wheels before lowering the vehicle.
Hi, first you don't say which bushes you need to change/ replace?The two large location bushes at the back of the top side of the front subframe on all models of Megane from 2003 onwards are notorious for failing with age. These bushes are not available from Renault without purchasing the full subframe, however a company called Commonsense Car Parts in Dundalk, Co Louth, Ireland do supply them. The steering rack needs to be disconnected first, thenthe two large bolts that travel upwards through these bushes must be undone, as well as the two bolts to the front of the subframe. This will allow the subframe to drop allowing access to the two bushes. Simply tap them out from the bottom and tap the new ones in.
To replace the front subframe bushes on a 1998 Renault Laguna, first, lift the vehicle and securely support it on jack stands. Remove the front wheels, then unbolt the subframe from the chassis, taking care to support it with a jack. Use a suitable tool to press out the old bushes and press in the new ones, ensuring proper alignment. Finally, reattach the subframe, wheels, and lower the vehicle back to the ground.
The rear are easy enough and the front drop links but for the front anti roll bar bushes you need to drop the front subframe, quite a big job.

I take it you mean the axle bushes? Disconnect the brake pipes, drop the front of the axle down, remove the old bushes, stick new ones in, reassemble brakes. Easy, took me a day
