If I remember correctly the upper control arm and the toe arm both need a press to remove the existing bushings. Same with the front. Most other non-suspension bushings don't need a press, like differential and steering rack. I have all the bushings, and while cheap to buy you pay a little in labor. This is why some people spend more on a new adjustable rear control arm and install it themselves. Costs about the same either way, unless you have a shop install the rear control arms then they cost more.
