Is there an off the shelf tool or do I need to get one made up. Im struggling to remove the three on the rear hub.

Im doing one side at at time, (space restrictions) and trying not to have to take them off.

Easy peasy way as long as you have a socket set and vice. If you do Google it and there's plenty of guides / videos

After putting 9 tons on the press to remove mine.I would say it would be virtually impossible in situ.

The easiest way is to drift out the centres, then hacksaw through the rubber and the outer of the bush then drift it out, the rear diff mount is a different story, same principle but very awkward to get into, good luck and time is the only issue and how much you want to spend on it.

It can be done in situ.

Rob Brookbanks shared some plans for a tool to help on the Griffith pages. I had one made up and used it to do all the suspension bushes on mine.

Unfortunately the Griffith pages link doesn't work anymore and I can't find the plans that I had, hopefully someone still has it

I made a tool to smack them out. I will try to find the old thread. The tool worked a treat.
