Yes you can. I did mine on the floor, one side at a time. I did the 2 smaller bushings first then I did the large round one on the (trailing arm?) I had to use a ratcheting strap to line up the bolt hole on the large round bushing as it tended to move rearward when you remove the center bolt.
Not a very difficult job for the 4 smaller bushes. Place the car on jack stands. Use a hydraulic jack to support the subframe. Unbolt the bushings from the body or the subframe (whichever one works for you) Lower the jack slowly. R&R bushing.
The large round bushing his a little more tedious as the bushing has to be driven out of the arm and the new one driven back in.

Sanchez - I'm confused (which can easily happen). The rear subframe bushings, as pictured in 1983Turbojaguarxj6's pics above, are all the same part number in the parts manual - CAC3067. In your writeup above you refer to 2 smaller bushings then larger bushings in the trail arm. What am I missing?

@ yatchmanbuttson: You did not miss out on anything. When I said 2 small bushings, I was referring to the 2 sub frame bushings per side and the large circular bushing on the trailing arm. Sorry about the confusion.
On another note: I tried to attach a pic of my tire in my PM so you could see how they look on the car but it did not allow me to do so.
