replaced all 12 bushings. in the end I removed one u bolt for top dog bones. I couldn't get both nuts off with u bolts still on. I bought a short socket ground it down a bit and welded a bar to it to fit between ubolt. Much easier to just remove ubolts if they come out easy. Homemade steel wedge worked great for putting pressure on joint and then hitting hard with a sledge popped em out. Used a press like everyone else to press out and reinstall. I did not use a perfect size cylinder to press back in just a flat plate over back side and pressed in till flat.
