Thanks guys! A co-worker with an older M6 recommended a different shop so I'm taking it there. The prices aren't bad, I think it's like $200 to replace the bushings in the tension arms. I know it'd be cheaper if I could do it myself, so I'm just trying to get the minimum done now until I can get back into a home. Should only be about 6 months.

The shocks have all been replaced, the X5 has 246K miles on it. It's from Idaho, but fortunately where we lived (and where the truck was) did not use salt, they used crushed volcanic rock so rust isn't really a problem.
