V70 Suspension: - Can I replace the D bushes on the rear anti-roll bar?

I have been told that I've got to buy the whole thing - or can I replace just the D bushes?

I was stuck doing this repair. I looked around and regretfully came to the conclusion that you have to replace the whole thing. Bit of a pain and relatively expensive. I was able to do the job without taking the shocks or springs out though (that’s what VidA says is required). Instead I popt d to carefully remove the inner bolt on each control arm. This allowed me to drop them down towards the middle of the vehicle and gave me just enough room for removal.
