bushings
I am trying to install my energy bushings in my lower control arms but i cannot get the sleeves out of the bushings to lube everything.
What is the best way to get the sleeves out?

I like to use a slightly opened bench vice to support the bushing then use a deep 9/16" socket and a hammer to drive out the center. Lube it up good when you put it back in.
