AdammRyan,
I didn't install the HR Uppers (They were on backorder when I was doing my rear suspension.), but I did install new upper bushings with my Metco Double Adjustable Uppers. I used the HR Parts tool to remove the old bushings and install the new ones.
A couple of tips:
1) The instructions with the HR Tool are very good. Make sure that you back the tool out after about 1/2 of the removal and install to ensure that you don't bend the threaded rod. I did my first one in 2steps as suggested and it went very smoothly. On the second one, I got greedy and tried to pull the old bushing in one pull. I ended up bending the threaded rod on the tool. I was lucky enough to be able to flip the rod over for the install new install and it had enough straight section remaining to get the job done. The HR Tool made this process so much easier than I thought it would be.
2) Apply LIBERAL use of anti-seize on the new bushing install.
3) Put your new bushings in the freezer overnight and take them out right before you are installing. This shrinks them down just a bit and I believe that it made the new install easier.
Here is a picture of mine installed. (Bolts not all synched down yet, but you can see the new bushings in the Rear End's upper ears.
