Does anyone know how to go about removing old drop links from a rear ARB in order to fit new ones?

how much fun is it getting the new ones on though as the centre bore of the rubber bush will be even smaller

Even better fun than taking the old ones off. I used good old fairy liquid to get enough slip on it!
Sore hands as well :td:

Best of luck mate. :eek:
