I did my TA bushes with an angle grinder and a cold chisel, to cut the bush in half and then bend the bits inwards so that they fell out of the lugs. Pulling in the new bush was much easier, with a threaded rod, a collection of washers and spacers, and a distance piece held in with string.
My warning with the front suspension bushes is when unbolting the bracket from the chassis section. Take very great care that you don't strip the thread on the captive nuts when winding the bolts out. I think the projecting ends of the bolts inside the chassis get rusty and pick up debris, and this gets wound into the nut.
