I removed my original control arm bushings today.

First had to cut the flange off the stock rubber ones. I used a hack saw between the rubber and the control arm and cut the rubber down to the metal sleeve in the bushing. Then pulled it away with a pliers while I cut it with a sharp utility knife. It cuts easy when it's pulled tight.

Then just heated it evenly around metal surrounding the bushing until it is soft and molasses like. I started to hear it boil and pop a little which let me know it was ready to hammer out.
