Help with subframe bushings
Ok Guys I have researched here and didn't find any thing about it.
So the point is I do have bad subframe bushings and I disasemble my rear suspension and they surely fall a part just the bushing of course.
I have all 4 nismo competition new subframe bushing to put in but I can't remove the old ones. I try to hammer them I put tons of WD40 and other lubes but thaey are such way sitcky due rust. I also try a puler but no succes due the area with not to much space.
I have a S14 1995 240SX and mostly stock.
I was have a bad wheel hop and when I took a look on my subframe bushings and notice they were so bad that the screw was not vertical and aligned anymore due the middle of the bushing already wear out.
So if anyone could give me an idea on how to remove the old bushing in order to put the new ones would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Yeah if you burn them out you risk to weaken the suspension due to the heat.
I found a solution at freshalloy.com using a hacksaw or a sawzall to cut a little section and them remove the rest. A little more job but safer to the suspension.
Thanks for all that answered.
