I would think you could do it while the spring is in the car.  Get the
verticlal link out of the way and burn the old one out with a torch.  Then
with a LARGE c-clamp, a lot of elbow grease, and some soapy water or silicon
spray, press the new bush in.  Use a bolt in the new bush and push against
the head with the c-clamp.  Good luck and let us know how it turns out!
