Easy to do..

Jack up one side.. Wheel off..

Rear arm off (bolt each end)

Undo the trailing arm (one through subframe, one bolt to hub and the tie bar through the middle)

Burn or saw the old bushes out (do all three)



Clean and paint arm.. Replace with poly.. silly not to realy

Re-fit








Personally Id replace the M12 bolts with new.. and locktite the bolts that go into the subframe

If you're handy on the spanners then give it a go..

Just make sure you use axle stands and not just a jack
