[DeTomaso] Bushing removal tool

[Will Kooiman]

I did the Sawzall and sockets trick on mine.  I didn't even use a press or vice.  If I recall correctly, I used a long bolt.  It wasn't bad at all - maybe one Saturday to do everything.

A bushing removal tool would have been easier, but it's a nice-to-have.

A Dremel might have been easier than a Sawzall.  There's not a lot of room for a saw.

    At the other end of the spectrum, a blowtorch works too!

    You can saw the large end of the bushing off, and then use a vice and appropriately sized deep well sockets (one small one large) and press them out.
