Rear Trailing Arms ; Inspection 200

With the car's Body on jackstands, Has anyone unbolted the Front bolt of the trailing arm and pulled the arm down to look at the solid Bushings?
I know you might be fighting against the Coil Spring, that's why I ask.
I have recently done the Trailing arm bushings (the ones in the axle)and I did Poly's in the Torque rods but I did not do the bushings in the front end of the trailing arm. I thought maybe it's worth a sneak-peak if I can do it 'easy'.
I didn't replace these with the others because in the past when I did ALL the rear bushings, These all-solid rubber ones came out looking brand new. along with the bushings in that Bar behind the axle ( what the heck is the name of that suspension bar anyway?)
