Do any of you guys know if its possible, to repace the body to subframe bushings of a first gen camaro while the car being completely assembled ?
They are completly worn out, I want to replace them for solid aluminium.

there is no reason you can't. there are people on here that have replaced the sub frame without taking the sheet metal off the car.

Here is a set of instructions on how to install the subframe body mounts for a first gen Camaro from global west. Hope that helps.

Done, thanks guys.
Anyone planning on doing the same don't forget to loosen the bumperbrackets from the subframe. It's not mentioned in the Global West Instructions.
