You shouldn't need a press to put any bushings in, you just need a little man power and maybe a rubber mallet to help them along. If your new bushing are Polyurethane you can place them in the freezer over night and it will cause them to shrink, making installation easier. I know it sounds crazy......but trust me! Remember to grease them OFTEN if they are poly or they will squeak like crazy!!!!!
