Talking about the pilot bearing? If so, go to an auto parts store. They usually have a slide hammer and pilot bearing removal tool that attaches to it. Then you just rip that bad boy out 
Did you get the slave cylinder off?

If you pack the recess inside the pilot bushing with grease you can press it out with a bolt that is the same size as the inner diameter of the pilot. hack off the threads and hammer it into the grease it will eventually push out the bushing. This doesn't work at all as well the slide hammer but if that is what you have to do, it will work. If your replacing the clutch you should probably pull the flywheel and have it resurfaced. It is much easier to hammer the bushing from the engine side of the flywheel when it is on your tailgate or table.
