I also think that i killed the OE bushes at the back when i fitted the springs. I wasn't aware that if you don't release them that they rip the internals and knacker them.... So, when playing with the rear springs slacken the arm mounts.
So, how easy are the front bushes?
I drilled through the rubber part and knocked out the centre, then used hacksaw on the outer sleeve, I was getting nowhere fast and it would not budge at all.
I persisted in the hacksawing of the sleeve, then I thought I wonder what would happen if I tap the part of the sleeve thats got a lip on it, I tapped it away from me with a chisel and hammer and it just flew out!!
I removed my arm from the car to do, and did it with a vice to hold it etc on the bench, I clampled the brake hose and it was a doddle to refit and rebleed.
