from watching someone else do it

jack up car
remove wheels
clamp / disconnect brake lines
drop rear beam
put on bench
hammer out old bushes
push in new bushes

refit is reversal of removal

Alternatively pay a garage anything between £40 and £300 depending on who quotes you and where you live

If you're doing it yourself invest in a Haynes as that should give you a good guide on how to drop the rear beam
