Message I'm at my wit's end trying to get the stock bushings out of the factory FUCAs. I'm replacing all my suspension bushings with Nismo replacements and have finished every other arm with a combination of a press and cutting the shell. None were unreasonably difficult besides the FUCAs. Their shape and size of the arm makes the other methods not work well as both sides have a wide flange and the two bushings are almost touching each other.

I've seen videos using and air hammer which I tried and just ended up scuffing up the arm pretty well while the bushing didn't move. I've tried cutting/banging/heat as much as I can but also worry about damaging the arm. Does anyone here have any tips on how they were able to do it?
