you can try a slide hammer if you have it and the right arms for it , the quickest easiest way I have found is to burn two slices through the bushing and split it , remove the pieces with pliers

The slide hammer way works really well. I weld the end of the slide hammer to the inside of the bushing and tap it out.

I used Tazza's method. However, I didn't have a slide hammer so I used the old tapered pin and a piece of threaded rod to make one. The pin has a through hole and had plenty of mass to tap the bushing out.

Essentially mine is the same as that. An old piece of steel at about 1-2KG with a hole in the middle. A bar with a stopper welded to the end. Works a treat.
I just weld the bar to the bushing pull it out, cut the end of the rod off and weld it to the next bushing. When the bar gets too short, i weld another one up, simple and cheap.
