Bss325i in Surrey. I believe he has the tools to do it and can fit it for you.

I did mine on the drive proper pikey style with two trolley jacks, diy blow torch and blocks of wood. No special tools were needed.
Main problem is when the alloy stub gets stuck in the shell or worse still breaks off.

It does if you're going to take the beam to a garage with a press!
New bushes can be fitted easily enough by the creative use of a bit of threaded rod, washers, nuts and ideally, the odd iron plumbing fitting. There's a pic. on here somewhere of someone's home made tool.
