You have two ways to replace the bushing. One way is to use the special tool which is a set of long splines that reach in the tailshaft housing and snag the bearing to draw it out.

Other way is to unbolt the housing itself and take tings to a workbench.

Either way, you are faced with the question of how to press in the new bushing. I believe the special tool comes with a second part to press the bushing. Another way is to use a socket of plastic pipe of exact diameter t=and tap things home.

I have done it both ways. It's simple and cost effective for me to remove the housing and just take the bushing R&R to a local maching shop.

If you remove the housing, note which bolts go where because some are longer and need to go back where they came out.
