How much of a pain in the *** is it to replace lower control arms on a disco 2

Hi everyone,
Just looking into how much of a pain it is to replace lower control arms on a 2002 disco II. Just looking for some input on this. Thanks everyone.

D2's don't have control arms, they have front and rear radius arms. As for replacing them, it's a pretty easy job. Jack it up, unbolt the drag link, unbolt the arm. It's replacing the bushings that's a pain in the ***

Why in the world would you need to do that? I have two with over 200k on them and the other 3 have 100k+ and none of them need the bushings or arms replaced.
