Lower "A" arm bushing removal.

[Ben Fenner]

I'm going to install new lower "A" arms on my classic. My current 
ball-joints are shot, so they need replacing. I ordered some urathane 
bushings to replace the rubber on the new parts. The problem is, the 
lever press at the school's machine shop isn't doing the trick, and the 
hydraulic press is broken.
I have experience removing the engine mount inserts with a hacksaw. I'd 
rather not go through that again, but if that's the way to do it, I'd 
like to know. What else would someone try? It looks like I'll have to 
get the rubber out before I can even fit a hacksaw blade in, so what 
should I do that with? I'm not really a fan of the torch method, but 
once again, I'll do what it takes.
