where does one get those white delrin bushings for the subframe?

In fact, I'm the guy who pioneered the replacement of those spherical bearings. Prior to my write-up here, people were replacing the whole carrier assembly in order to get those spherical bearings.
So, yeah, I'm not advocating putting poly in place of those spherical bearings, only in place of the OEM rubber bushings.

notice that the rear arm is between the puller and caliper, the trailing arm is not shown but is just hanging, while the front arm is still attached in its normal position.
That worked on both sides for the rear spherical bearing. I didn't get pics of the front bearing and I don't remember specifically how I did it but I do know that I didn't remove the arms completely.
It's quite likely that I used a prybar to help wedge the arm up out of the way.
