I think the Haynes manual suggests burning them out, which I did when I first removed my original rubber bushings. The poly-u ones and then the Goodparts ones are in two pieces, so installation and r

I've drilled a couple of holes through the rubber bushing to weaken it and then used a C-clamp and large socket to push it into. I prefer the uprated rubber bushing. Install = C-clamp, a piece of whi

Another method is to drill using a large bit through the rubber parallel to the insert and between the steel insert and edge of the rubber, then simply drive the bushing out with a drift and hammer.

Stuart, this is a very doable project. It is prone to pretty bad shipwrights disease (rust, hubs, brakes, brake pipes and hoses etc) but it is an opportunity to fix or refresh a lot of stuff with min

The job can be done with a good set of sockets, a jack, jack stands, and a tool to press out the bushings. The tool I used was a two jaw gear puller, available for a few bucks at an auto parts store

I think the best cure for squeaky TA's is to fit grease nipples into the TA's below each bush and give them a shot from a grease gun once a year. You can see this illustrated in one of Roger Williams
