So, I used the tool from CJ and got it done! Wow that was tough!

Best to use a lift - and then you can use you body weight to pull down on the wrench to remove the bushing.

Took two of us big dudes, on the floor to pull the darn thing out. Takes a lot of torque.

I ordered a 3' stick of 1/2" Acme thread, and 4 new Acme nuts (Two 1/2" and two 3/4"). The all-thread is in pretty good shape, but nuts are trashed.

Once that stuff arrives, I will cut the all-thread down into 10" sticks, and the tool will be ready to go out to the next person. Should be late this week.
