How do I remove the bushings out of the old endlinks of an dc2 integra rear sway?

Push them out and save the metal inner collar so you don't have to buy another one from the dealership. If they are really stuck, you can always burn them out, but that shouldn't be necessary.

I bought new bushings for it from acuraoemparts.com. it has the collar in the bushing. But what do I use to push the bushing out? This is my first time doing this.

Oh, sorry I glazed over that completely. I have a press that I use, but you could probably situate the endlink in a way that would allow you to use a hammer and appropriately sized socket to tap the old bushing out. The new one should go in with out to much of a fight as long as you lube it first. If you can't get it in by hand, use a clamp, or a vise, or just use your girth and stand on it.

I can get the old bushings out no problem but pushing in new oem ones seems impossible by hand. Anyone has tips on getting them in? I work at an autozone so hand tools wouldnt be a problem
