They usually just tap out with a punch inside one to the inside and outside one to the outside.

I think I used a socket from a socket set as a drift to ease the bushes out using a vice to push them out.

A bit of heat also helps. Done a few, and it was not as bad as it seemed it would be.

I’ve managed to get 1 out using a 17 mm deep socket but the inner most 1 I’ve not tried yet there not much purchase using the same socket I might see if I’ve an imperial size that’s slightly bigger.
