Can I not just put some powerflex bushes in? Rather than replace the whole arm?

Yes you can put some Powerflex bushes in, but you'd have to do the whole car IMO.

I think the other issue is getting the bushes out of the wishbones.

I'm getting Polybushes all round in a couple of days time at Centre Gravity.

Give Chris a call, he will be more than happy to advise you.
