Anybody have any special tips to get the Rear trailing arm bushings off?

I rented the special tool from IPD. No instructions so I may have used it incorrectly at first. The center bolt curved to one direction right away. I have taken it off, pounded it straight and retried a few times. I still cant get the bushing to budge.

Should I be pressing the center pieces of metal out first?

ont the passenger side I tried to push the wheel side toward the diff. Perhaps the wrong way?


Thanks
