Nissan doesn't sell the parts separately, but ES does. I suspect Nissan
decided if the any of the bushings or b-joint was in bad enough shape to
replace, then the other parts should be replaced as well.

It's on pretty tight, and there's a metal shell indside the rubber. Use a
hack-saw to slice into it. Don't go so deep that you cut the arm. As the
cut gets deeper, use a pry bar to spread the joint open. You'll get it
eventually.
