I suggest Bearing Grease or NEVER SIEZE when you reassemble. Next time it will be easier.
Trailing Arms. The side with the exhaust pipe is tougher. As Erling mentioned, the Tool makes the so much easier. Without the Tool, the ears on the Axle want to bend which pinches the Bushing. It's a real pain without the tool.
If they have never been replaced and they are glued in place with undercoating, it will be a tough go of it. Six point Sockets and Breaker bar along with Big handled wrenches will help a bunch.
Look at Erlings website and see his 'fancy footwork' as he cranks these bushings out.
