Default suspension bushings

are the bushings on a 94 lx pressed in? mine were all rotten so i went to replace one and i can't get the outer piece of metal out of the control arm. do i need to take the whole control arm out and get a machine shop to press in the new bushing?

thanks for any help,

isaac

what, like heat it up and bash it out with something?

i was hoping to do this without removing the control arm.. but maybe that's just not possible. ugh.

thanks for the tip
