I saw Rusty used that bore drill bit from home depot. I'm already looking for it.

Mine was pulled out without cutting; you may find it easier to make a slice or 2 through the bushing Shell first....but a hole saw will take the center out your way :ugh2:

You'll need a 2" holesaw for cutting the center of the bushing out. Get this one. It will cut all the way though.

You will also need a muffler tool to remove the outer shell of the oem bushing. Get one of these. A inside muffler pipe cutter. It's the one used for cutting the inside pipe.

Plus a 2". 60 grit flapper wheel to clean up the inside of the bore in sub-frame. You don't want any sharp edges or burrs in the bore. You want it smooooth.

Sawzall.

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwauke...9-31/202438078

If you don't want to buy. You can rent one from Home Depot. :tup:

If using the sawzall. Make 3 cuts in the shell. One at the bottom, and the other 2 about the 4 and 8 o:clock positions. These are relief cuts. The cuts is where you put the muffler tool at and start to beat on it. Be careful when making the cuts. You don't want to cut into the sub-frame.
