We had a tech session a while back & one guy (Greg
Donegan) brought a long piece of threaded rod with
washers & nuts on each end. The threaded rod diameter
must be just smaller than the inner diameter of the
bushing holes. The rod must be long enough to span
both bushings plus a little extra of course. Slide
the rod through both bushings. Put a nut & small
washer on one end(the end that you're drawing thru).
On the other end have a larger washer & nut...one that
will not fit thru a bushing sleeve. Tighten the nut &
behold the magic...it will pull the other bushing
right thru. No drilling, cutting, or burning. Simply
reverse the process for the other bushing.
I was just amazed seeing this after having fought with
c-clamps & pieces of PVC.
Cheers,
Todd
