I'm about to order these from Phil and would like any help I can get.
Thanks
Getting the old ones off isn't too bad. After pulling the bolt, I just put a large socket between the chassis and the bushing then jacked it up again. The weight of the car just pushes it out.

To install the new one use a little KY, as mentioned earlier in this post. The trickier part is getting the suspension to line up to restart the bolt. I used a come-along, attached front-to-rear, then with slight raising/lowering of the jack to align the trailing arm and made starting the bolt really easy.
