Rear Trailing Arm Bushings...? 200 1986

I'm considering an attempt to do my own TAB replacement-- using the tool rental from IPD. As the front ones are still in good shape, I'm thinking rears only, and in rubber.

Does the trailing arm still need to be completely removed from the car? Dealing with spring tension terrifies me, frankly, but so does the prospect of somebody using an air chisel to remove my rear bushings!!

They also want $225+. It seems to me that that's a whole lot of dollars to do the job wrong. I don't want my axle brackets beaten on with an air chisel-- unless my fellow Brickboarders recommend it!

What are your opinions and suggestions? I'd love to read them, as they are always appreciated,

Brendan.
