From what I've read this pin shown in the picture is suppose to press out. I guess many have used a vice for a press. I destroyed the old bushing with this method and got it out, but the pin won't budge and looks to be one piece to me.
Am I missing something or do I just need to take it to a mechanic with a press? |

Long socket that fits inside the aluminum and puts the pressure on the steel.
Hammer out the pin. Put zero force or pressure on the cast piece |

Put zero force or pressure on the cast piece This is how I just did mine....it took a little effort to get it started moving but really was no big deal. The socket works well at getting the force where it needs to be. |
