Shackle Bushing Can be removed??
Well I was told by 2 vendors that the shckle bushing cannot be removed (pressed out). Is this true?? here is a pic:
Its for my 59 F100 Rear spring Shackle... the kit that I bought,.. 2 of them thinking that i couldnt replace the bushings....and was told if i try i would end up breaking the shackle, does that sound about right??

Don't really know anything much about '59's, but from that picture, it appears to be all one piece, and the bushing may well be vulcanized in the shackle assembly. Which means the vendors are correct.
