im not sure what tools you have access too , but if you put your new LCA bushings in a freezer overnight , and the next day heat the LCA with acetylene torch so its red around the hole , the ice cold bushing should beat right in the hole no problem with a socket fitting the outside edge of the bushing and a hammer.

I used to cut out the rubber and then saw out the metal ring. Then used a bench vise with a block of wood that had a hole cut into it so the bushing could push throught the lca. Now I have air hammer which will push out the old bushing in 5 sec. And to push in the new ones I use a large C clamp which is made for pushing in balljoints (may be available for rent at local parts store).
