Question rear suspension bushings?

my son's high mileage 850 wagon needs rear suspension bushings - not the forward most ones that mount to the body (they've been done) but the ones at the very ends of the wishbones (called "rear axle anchorage mount" on eeuro'sparts list). These are the ones that mount the RH wishbone to the LH wishbone, and visa versa. Has anyone done these, and do you know if the entire wishbone needs to be removed or is there enough "wiggle" room to replace them with the wishbones in place? Any hints, suggestions, etc. greatly appreciated.
thanks

You will have to drop it from the mounting where the other bushings have been replaced and slide the arms apart to replace the bushings.
