ok this town of naples sucks ass. i couldnt push out the bushings for my suspension without damaging the arms(they started to flex) cause they are so tight. i tried to call around town and maybe john collins can do. I need to know if anyone in fort myers can do this or if someone can do this in miami cause i am at my last straw with this and ready to just buy all new adjustable shit for the rear and front. lmk whats up.
 
you could drill them out. its just that shit takes forever. drill into the rubber in a bunch of places around the outside of it, tryin not to hit the metal on the link/arm/whatever.
 
i could fucking torch them out but would they press in ok would be the thing? i just burned out the ones in the sub frame and then got the new ones in ok. i am not sure what to do.
 
you should be able to support the arm better to use a press to get them out.......... I dont remember if I used a torch on the FLCA bushings, because i knew i could get them in the press. I torched out the subframe bushings and extracted the outer steel shell with an air chisel. try using a socket the perfect size to support the arm rather then what you might be doing.

i did try to suport them with sockets like you say but they just wouldnt come out. i might have to either take it somewhere or torch it then press the new ones in. i might just take it somewhere so i can get it done asap.
 
torch them carlos...
