When I did mine I had the car on a lift. I removed the muffler, rear sway bar, V- shaped brace, disconnected the drive shaft from the diff and then dropped the differential to pound out the two front bushings with a 21 - 24 socket and a hammer.

The the subframe bushing I used a drill and drilled around the center sleeve. Then, I took the sawzall and inserted where I had been drilling. I started from there and made a B - line to the outer ring and cut through it. Finally, I took a pry bar and a hammer and hit it twice and it came right out.

My question is.

Can the Subframe bushing (once everything is out) be pushed out with center bushing intact using the air-hammer method?

What I vision is, as one user suggested, just hitting the lip of the outer portion and drive it all in one piece!

Since he had no need for a swazall split.

I can't imagine the rubber center would exert that much force on outer shell to prevent an air chisel from pushing it out. ( hammering at different locations circumstantially and equally)

Just a thought.

The issue would be getting the proper angle to use the chisel. That and the rubber center is attached really, really well.

This is where I'm starting to lean as well which is just grabbing a compressor and an air hammer. Hopefully haven't messed up the subframe too much but the collar is really rust welded in there. Hit it with some Liquid Wrench a second ago but I guess I'll follow with the torch.

I appreciate the replies.

Cut all the way through it. Then use the method I used and it will come right out.

Just thought I'd add my tip: after tightening the tool as much as it'll go, hit the back side circle plate with a hammer a bunch of times and that'll let you turn it a bit more. Repeat that until it comes out. You'll need a big punch to reach it though.

Is this tool still floating around possibly?

You would be better using a hole cutter and a sawzall.

Here's the hole cutter.

I’ve got the factory one out already just need to pop out a z1 bushing and put a new one in. Was just hoping for a tool to make it easier. Def will go in there with a mallet

getpho said they sent the tool to AGNTWOO.

Freeze the bushing for a few days. You don't need the tool just use a piece of iron with am all thread rod and some nuts

Free differential bushing removal tool.
 

Ended up using a long bolt and some big washers to press new one in. Used a c clamp and oil filter wrench to pop the old one out. Worked like a charm
