Ford Puma rear bush replacement

Hi lads

Has anyone here replaced these on this car or a fiesta as im told its the same parts? They are the rear trailing arm bush's and the ones on my GF's car have gone completely.

I dont want to start it if its a 'burn them out' kind of job because i dont have a oxy torch.

Also can i just drop the arms down without removing the brake lines?

Cheers

Andy

rear beam can be dropped from the front only, but not sure i'd want to be whacking away at bushes with the brakes still connected.
Also i've got a full set of polybushes i was going to put the the ZS before i sold it, front bush front wishbones, rear is brand new standard ford part, arb bushes and rear trailing arm bushes if your interested
