Did you get the old outer metal bushing parts out of the arms?
Or did you just get the center rubber out leaving the outer rim?
Be carefull using a big hammer on the radius arms, they bend.
Ask me how I know?
Heat and beat using a suitable drift (correct size socket wrench)
Not too big, but just enough to fit the metal rim of the old bushing.
Or sawzall them out carefully.
Stick the new bushings in the freezer overnight. heat the radius arm and
tap in the frozen bushings.
