Front UCA bushing removal
Will the front Upper Control Arm Bushings separate from the shell and push out using a press, leaving the shell in the arm? Or will using a press here push both the rubber and the shell out at once from the arm?
I'm replacing these with ES bushings, and don't want to have to burn them out if I can avoid it. I don't want a discussion on the Pros or Cons of the Poly, just need to know if it will press out separate from the shell or fire is the only answer.

The bushing sleve will press out with the correct attachments, if you just want the rubber section only, it will separate leaving the sleave and a little but of rubber “residue”
