It looks expensive for something you can probably Jerry rig yourself, but you can always sell it to someone else on the forum when someone else's inevitable blows out.

It's garbage. Get yourself a deep 2" holesaw from Home Depot to cut through the inner and outer bushing rubber. 3 cuts with a sawzall. Knock out with a muffler tool. I do them in 20 minutes. Longer if I'm BSings with someone.

+1 for this. Rusty and I did mine, and I brought the z1 tool with me to try out. We gave it a whirl. I guess in theory it would work if you have enough room to really push on it, car on a lift for example, but in practice, Rusty's method produces quick effective results.

Also Betty, I wouldn't worry too much about a cut into the subframe. You should feel a sort of pop through the sawzall blade when you cut through the bushing shell. At worst, you'll mildly score the surface of the subframe.
