Changing all front end bushings!

I just bought a nice clean 91 LX 4 door L/back with 44K. It seems a very nice car, I was wondering;
I am going to do the front struts, I would like to do all the rubber bushings in the front end. A quick peek under there is inspiring, it looks like most of the bushings can be replaced without pressing. It looks like you unbolt half a keeper and the bushing is there. I have not been up on the rack yet and may be wrong...is the job fairly easy?
I will have a rack (drive on or arm type) and air, plenty of tools etc.
Also, does the GT have stiffer stabilzer bars that bolt up to my 91 with no problem?

yeah both the front and rear will bolt right on. Just get corrisponding years for easy fit.
If you dont feel like oing the front then dont, cause the gt ones are not that much bigger up front. And its a lot of work.
