Nice video but I don't think its a good idea to refit the new bushing by drawing it in by the core - you could end up damaging the new bushing. The best approach is to use a cup that is the same size as the outer casing and draw it in that way. There is a bit of a profile on the circumference but doesn't interfere too much with the installation.
I’ve just done this job on 2010 Fiesta and put a long socket extension bar through centre of old bushes - drilled some rubber while levering my long bar and old bushes came out very easy!!!
Seen several videos on how to do this, some show the bush is inserted from the inside to the outer. Question is does it matter, mine currently is inserted opposite to how you show it, bought used so don't know if it is correct.
Iv done a few of these nows an hours job once you know what your doing I use a reciprocating saw to cut them out then put poly's in no special tool required
Loose hack saw blade easier than a drill to cut rubber. Hack saw blade in back to front to cut through the plastic. Fit poly bushes and no special tools needed.
Not supposed to grease bushings for installation - they are supposed to be a tight friction fit and using grease could cause them to rotate. Best to use a bit of washing-up liquid as that still helps with installation but will will dry off.

I've seen some mechanics on certain cars having to burn those bushes out with a blow torch.

@@t1ber1an Hi mate should be the way I show it your one sounds wrong

What size socket and spanner did you use on the re fit tool
Thanks
Don't forget the threaded bar doesn't last very long. You will be replacing it every couple of bushes! Next time just stick poly bushes in.
Thanks mate appreciate the info 👍👍
No you don’t the threaded bar should meet years mine has
