Reminds me of me. At least I imagine you have a better set of tools for this
job than I.

OTOH, based on what you said, I'm not touching my front trailing arm
bushings until I hear a "wonk" in the back, indicating total failure of one.

I trust you already own a torch, 'cause this was one time when PB Blaster
just wasn't enough. Also, I trust you've read the archives for the various
techniques for dealing with those lower control arms. Like snapping off the
welded nut...

Jim Beam knows all. ;-)
