Default how do I get this &@#$ing bushing back into the endlink?

So I've got an ITR endlink with a popped bushing and I have tried forcing that little bugger back in for some time. Does anyone have any good recommendations for DIY on getting the bushing back in on an endlink? I'd rather not take it to a shop, but if I have to I will.

Thanks!

Have you tried putting the rubber busing into the freezer for a few hours?
Enlink in the hot sun?
......A press or even a bench top vice?

Freeze the bushing and heat up the metal endlink.....I'll have to try that.

Any other tips people have had success with. I don't have a vice or press at home, but I have a c-clamp. Do I stand a chance?
