Or do what I did, get half way and wish you'd never started but by that time it's too late lol

This.

It is a pig of a job and i ended up having to take rear beam off, disconnecting break lines and taking it to my mates garage to use the press (vice would not work however many times we tried).

or end up breaking something else while doing it :D

After disconnecting the rear brake lines to get to the beam, we couldnt bleed the brakes properly, so while i was there and was going to have to bleed whole system, i ended up buying 312mm big brakes and goodridge braided lines.

Bushes, original job, cost £30 delivered.

Brakes, as i was there  :rolleyes:, cost £225 + £15 odd brake fluid.

Ended up an expensive experience   :laugh:  :grin:   :shocked:
