Back at it and working on projects(2 now) and yesterday was bushings on attachment day. old out and putting in new after shrinking with dry ice still involved a very big hammer and some serious beating. Stepped back and thunk a little and next one i tried heating attachment bushing pocket to expand then install bushing: back to big hammer and serious beating.Pocket for bushings were all cleaned to bare shiney metal with no ridges or burrs.
There's probably a portable press of some type for this but don't want to spend the $$$ for one.
All ears on a better way to do this.

Re: replaceing bushings
for pulling bushings in I have a 3/4" threaded grade 8 rod and1/2' steel plates and squeeze them in works well.
