The bad bit is getting the old bushes out. Cut the centre out of the bush and hacksaw through the sleeve. It depends on your facilities and endurance!!

 

You could take the axle right off the car and have someone press out the old ones. The poly ones can be knocked in with a mallet and some grease.

It's not as bad to do as I thought it would be. It's possible in a day without rushing.

 

The biggest hassle I had was forgetting to plug the hydraulic brake lines, which meant bleeding the braking system through from scratch.
