Press is always the preferred method. With the shape of these arm there's really no good way to access the bushings, or support the arm on a press for removal.
The easiest way to do it, wait until there is absolutely nothing left, they practically fall out on their own! (I didn't let mine wear out, they were that bad when I bought my Blazer)
That's fine for those who own an oxy torch, and are ok breathing the smoke. My shop is a little attached garage... Explaining to my wife why all the windows are opened in the middle of winter, and where the fog war has come from.. isn't a very appealing idea.
That MUSIC is hellish loud
Ya not sure what happened there... it was 20db lower in edit but very loud on the upload for some reason.
Wish I’d seen this before enduring the pain of drilling mine out!
Perfect timing! Just about to do this project.
I used a 20 ton HF press to R&R mine. Worked fine. The hole saw is a good idea though.

@@projectaddiction i took my arm off and was perplexed cant find a good angle.
How did you do it with a press

Or I can whip out the cutting torch and be done in 60 seconds.
