Re: Tie Bar Bushes
You can just Burn them out, or if you get a clamp and some pipe you can press them out
Burning them is easier

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Blow torch is the best job but petrol should do the same job

Re: Tie Bar Bushes
It's basically the same, you just need enough petrol to melt the rubber and get it burning itself
You'll need a thin wire brush or file to clean any rubber that doesn't fall out
