Hi Mike,
I just did this repair yesterday. Lifted the car and only put the front on jack stands pretty high up there. Put the stands under the jack points on the side of the frame under the front door hinges.
Everything was stable and totally fine.
Like you, I thought this could be a little sketchy, and had a couple of extra safeties in place, but at the end of the day, no problems.
One tip: get a good, long automotive prybar to move the subframe down enough in back to fight out the old bushings and slip in the new ones.
Good luck, I bet you will love the new handling, I do for sure.
Patrick
