One to hold the subframe, and one on the opposite rear corner from the front bushing. If you lift up the opposite rear corner a few inches, it drops the front enough to get the tool in place.

And I got the bushings from Harold!

I had all thread and lots of washers on hand just in case, but the tool worked out great. No rocket science to the tool, just the right size metal cups.
ok, but when i mounted the rear sway bar i don´t disconnect the rubber brakes.
