I bought a large socket thinking that would work but its too thick for the new bush to fit in. thanks for reading.
Just done mine for my suspension refurb. An engineering firm pressed them out for me. They said it took their 20t to get them out. Hopefully not so bad for others but I think a press is the order of the day
