Have you seen the soap/grease method and a snug bolt for pushing the bushing back out? wonder if it works :think: got any other ideas of getting it back out?

The grease and bolt method works a treat just make sure the bolt is super snug fit and a normal hammer :wtf: :lol: was shocked how easy :thumbup:

Just thinking over that bush again... is the chamfer the same on both ends?
No it's not but I put it in the same way as the old one, I think the chamfer is matched to the input shaft? shaped the same the flat end didn't seem right and it would make it hard to line the box up, but I'm no expert (obliviously) :lol:

Some more pictures

How is that looking? the tape is around the face of the shaft so only the piece that goes in is shown.
