Take a drill, and drill a series of holes through the rubber, that will let the centre bolt and bushing come out easier. Once you get some space created, take a hacksaw, slide the blade through the centre, and cut a slit (or 2-3 if you want) in the outer bushing and it will allow it to collapse more, making it a lot easier to get out.
