Was going to say drop the diff, as the spring replacement guide, but that won't help by the looks of this. :-/

Thats exactly how you do it, not to hard  :y

In fact its often a bit easier as you dont need to drop it far to get at the U clamp bolts so the brake pipes dont need removing from their mounts

see the spring replacement guide in maintanance. Involves dropping the diff, which sounds drastic, but is actually quite easy with the guides help.

Actually, i'm being thick, again, i was thinking the spring guide involves dropping the diff, in fact its the whole subframe that drops to remove the springs. Which is exactly what you need to access the bolts roll bar bush bolts.
