From what I am making out of your issue, I would try grinding them off. I've heard some Bricksters mention that If you buy "cheaper" bushings, the trailing arm bushings might be loose. These bushings are the ones attached to the axle so I too am confused as to why you want to buy new arms.
If your mechanic has any pnuematic muffler cutting tool, he can cut the bushing out then get in there witha file and clean up the tacked welded material that is left.
