Rear control arm bushings

Ok so i have changed over to poly I got the front done already. Very easy to do if u know what your doing. I did it at school, i did left on one day and right the next. Kinda hard the first time but the seconed time it took like 5-10 mins if theres no cleaning involved. 15-20 complete job. But the questions i have is-
Has anyone replaced them ? Is it an easy task? Do I need to take out the whole control arm? i.e take off the break line and all that stuff. let me know thanks.

Just to clarify, I am pretty sure this thread is about FC bushings.

umm, i have one control arm to finish on the front. still have to figure out if i have or can get the ball joint covers, like i ripped mine apart. but i won't be tackling the rear end for another week or two. and i dread going back there again. last time i went back there was to replace the rotors.... lets just say i snapped the heads off all four of the caliper bolts. it ended up being a really long story....

Damn, I wanted to get to them last weekend, but I snapped some more bolts. And while I was at the pick and pull getting new bolts, I snagged a set of s4 swaybars. I wanted them so I could change the balljoints if I ever needed to, and it has the metal end links, all for 11$ each, not bad... So I woun't get the rears until next weekend, srry...later
