If you have a bench mounted vise use that to compress it in.

unless your doing it in the car.

Which bushings are stuck on, fronts or rears?Fronts I beat out the inner bushing with a hammer leaving only the metal behind. then I used a hacksaw. Removed the blade, fed it thru the hole & then put the saw back together. Cut thru the metal & voila! it gone. Rears I did simlar, I was able to beat out the center rubber & then used an old screwdriver to beat out the metal parts.

no. the problem is i have trouble getting them back in.. to get them out i just burned them out and then hacksaw the rest.

Anyways, i got them in. i just brought everything over to my friends place and he pressed them in with a C-clamp(not exactly a c-clamp but like one, don't know what it is called) and 2 slabs of metal. he used them like a vise to pop them in. it took a couple of trys tho, cuz they would squirt to the side.

Thanks alot guys for all you help.
