Rear Axle Beam Pivot Bushings...

I did a brief search through the forums to see if anyone had written anything up and didn't find anything. It appears as thought I am getting play at the pivot bushing on the axle beam, I'm not sure but it looks like the bushing is torn and falling apart (will be able to see better once dropped). My question is, has anyone replaced these bushings, and if so what is involved with getting the old ones out of the beam and the new ones in without damaging them. Also, I dont have a press...

I have only read the procedure.

There is a tool. Basically a long bolt with a washer on one end and a cup on the other. Or a press. Or a sledge hammer and drift.

Or air hammer gun, the bolt and cup can be mimicked with threaded rod and sockets
