I think it doable on a drive. Once the sub frame is out should be easy. I don't know if you need a press/vice with the vibra technics mount.

I'm sure someone will let you know if a press is needed.

You can tap them in with a hammer and a decent size socket or similar tube but you have to central it and tap it in.
