My car is at a local transmission shop, and the rebuilt transmission will get here next week from Jacks Transmissions. While everything is apart which bushings can easily be replaced before the trans is reinstalled? When the car is on the lift I could offer to pay the shop to use my Energy Suspension bushings while they are putting everything back together or I could do some of them myself (slowly) while they're easy to get to. Any suggestions?

Are there any how to guides for the bushings with pictures?
 
From what I've read this will be a lot of work. I do have an impact so at least taking it apart should be a little easier.
 
The best tip I can give for bushings is to put them in your freezer, yes freezer!, overnight. Freezing them will constrict them slightly smaller allowing easier installation. A little lube and good hammer will have those bushings installed in no time!
