Just want to make sure I'm doing this the best way. I was trying to remove the bushings from the rear control arms. I heated them and got the rubber out what is the best way to get the rest of the bushing out?

Use an air chisel to cave them in and they push right out. You'll need a press or at the least a strong vise to install the new ones, also brace the inside arms with a socket or scrap steel when pressing them in to keep it from squashing. You gonna box them while they're out and bushing-free?

I was not planning on it. I am going to replace it later with an upgrade when I have more of a budget. Just want to get it back on the road.
