I used a drill and drilled the bastards out. Get enough out where it falls apart and the rest comes on out. Makes a mess tho.

Use this tool from MM, it's removes and installs the bushings correctly. Comes with good instructions and even sets the depth right when you reinstall. Made that job so much easier.
