I have Rusty's front lower control arms that use OEM rubber bushings on the axle end. A couple weeks ago I replaced my driver side and it was a pita to do. I basically had to hammer and chisel the rubber and metal sleeve out a piece at a time. Took a wile to do and ruined a chisel in the process. Is there a tool or easier way to remove the old bushing and sleeve? Any help would be appreciated.

Nope, have'nt contacted them yet. Hoping the rep posts up or anyone who has done this easier than me. I'm sure there are other brand CA's that use OEM bushings too.

I replaced the factory bushings in my TJ, and used a balljoint press. Just be careful, we had a rubber bushing come out explosively, sending my buddy to the ER for stitches.
