It would have been very hard to do this with the subframe still fitted to the car.

Thanks for the heads up.
A buddy of mine tried to install solid rear sub-frame bushings himself last week. He was unable to properly seat them with a similar contraption he built (he only had an electric impact). He had to remove his rear sub-frame from his car and take it to a shop to have them pressed in the last few millimeters. I will likely just have a shop install my solid bushings and rear sway bar and save my self the trouble.
