Fun job, glad it worked out OK.  I went through this on the ole 5KS:

As I've stated before, I'll junk the car before I go through that
neurosurgery BS again.  If I REALLY had to do it, I'd cut a hole in the
frame next time around then weld it back when done.  

As to why replace, on the 5KS I could actually feel the subframe shift
back and forth.  Decades of hydraulic fluid soaking had taken their toll
on the bushings.
