As far as the rust I would consider it average, my daily driven '02 ZX3 with 112K thats not normally garaged in Indiana has less rust.
yeah, from everything I've read, it seems that it's not an easy task, and definitely requires some tools that I don't have. I'm not sold on doing it myself, but I did want some outside opinion on the condition the bushings are in. Only one of them looks iffy to me.

The rust is certainly a concern for me. It's been in NY and MA its whole life, so the underside has definitely seen its share of snow and salt.

I'm thinking I'll save up and sometime down the road have a shop install a set of springs/dampers along with the bushings.
