I'm running them with my VC panhard rod for the past 10+ years....No issues what so ever

I'd personally buy the McKay rubber originals and they can be fitted by hand and require no press at all.

Okay, I dont own a live rear end with panhard rod. But if it's anything like a shackle bush on an old leaf spring; a threaded rod, 2 nuts, a socket and washers. Then a spanner and a rattle gun to force it in there.

It's similar but I'd go with the split bush, it's such an easy job once you get the old flogged bushes out.
