    I screwed with mine for a while with a gear puller and a sledge, ended up needed 2 seconds with an air hammer and a good tip.

    Air hammer wouldn't take mine off, just dented the shit out of it.. Gear puller got them almost instantly. Unfortunately, half the bushing is still stuck on the trailing arm.
