    Just done mine with poly bushes. All I did is use plenty of lube and sat the bush inside using a socket the same size hammer in job done.

    MG no need for any of this; angle grind one side off with a cutting disk & push out.

    New bush; same 1MM cutting disk cut the middle of the bush creating 2 halves.
