taking out that bushing is a B***H! a real B***H!
I took of my cover & had a local shop replace the bushing - using a 2000 lb. press - & I'm told they had a hard time swapping it.
unless it is obviously broken in half or torn up - dont bother.
but if you are doing it - make sure they orient it the right way, or it'll F-up your day good & proper...
oh, yeah - use 75w-90 Royal Purple Gear Oil - that stuff rocks!
