Just a quick mini update
I had much better luck removing the other king pin bushing - it came out very easily - needle on the hydraulic press barely moved.
In cases like this I can see why Volvo don't seem to make a fuss about the gap like I did - however if you get one that's a bit stuck I still reckon it is best to be aware of the potential dangers.
I won't show how I managed to remove the other bushing - way way too dodgy a method to show on the internet. Sometimes I'm just a bad baby sitter...
