Default Replacing rear trailing arm bushes?

These failed on the MOT on a 2009 Focus.

I have seen two methods of getting the trailing arms out so the bushes can be extracted and replaced. One where the entire rear axle is dropped out and the other where just the arm is removed.

Which is easier? Is this as much of a PITA as it looks?

Shame these things are so hard to replace as they are bound to fail eventually!

Any advice welcome!
