Body bushing #3 and #4 I had replace about 15 years ago(by the doors), # 7 body bushing at the very back of the frame byside gas tank is not missing on my car but there cracked and sqweshed.

How do you install #7(both), Is there a method/ The right side looks hard, theres no room? Is it possible? unless u fish it through with a string and try to pok it in with screw driver & put the bolt in at the bottom.
 
Yeah just do them all. If the bolts aren’t all rotted junk and you can actually get them out then you’re way ahead of the curve already.
I prefer the polyurethane energy suspension style kits
 
I followed this method. Bushing Replacement Procedure

Number 7 wasn't bad at all. If I recall Number 3 seemed to be the hardest. Be very careful if you have stock bumper fillers. They may become compromised if you aren't careful when you remove them. I was able to use a lift when I updated my bushings and that helped a lot. Good luck.

Where?, do they sell 6 kit. #3-4 & #7
 
The process is relatively easy if the bolts come out. Remove all bolts, jack the body off the frame using the method posted above. On a car that they come out easy it is a few hour job to do all of them. If your car is rusty and the bolts or cage nuts break then it is a lot bigger job. Good luck finding a shop to do it too; most don't want to touch it.
