Default Front Sway bar bushing removal

To those who have been there..
What tool did you access the rear bolt with (driver side)
Looks very inaccessible!.
Can i just raise both bolts enough to slide the old bushing out? Or do i need to remove that metal "strap"?

If i remember correctly you dont have to drop the subframe on the drivers side just the passenger side (changed mine about 2 years ago)
and no need to remove the strap just loosen enough to get the bushing out

There was a recent post on here from someone who replaced the passenger side bushing without lowering the subframe, my search didn't find it again, any info on that?
