Default HELP PLEASE-Driver's side steering rack bushing removal for ES install?

Hey all!

How the f**K do I get the old bushings and factory sleeves out of the driver's side steering rack mount? They sure won't just push out. Do I have to pull the rack? I tried the BFH too... They didn't budge and I thought the control arms were supposed to be the bitch (they're done!).
Thanks in advance for all the great tech help guys!

Blow torch and the BFH. Or take it to some where and have them pressed out.

I dropped my rack to access the two in the back.

Damn, I was afraid you were going to say that.... After I disconnect the steering column, can I wriggle it out or do I have to punch out the "bitch" pin and remove the shift linkage too? (my whole front suspension and exhaust are already gone). Some one suggested trying to drill little holes around the rubber parts of various bushings to remove them.... I may try that first.

Any other thoughts?
