Use a big socket or a suitable bit of tube to isolate one side of the bush while pressing it in with a vice. You can clamp directly onto the other side of the bush as it'll compress enough to push the whole thing in...

Easy as! took 20 minutes to do both bushes

Any questions - just ask.

That works, but you are driving the bush in from the wrong direction - it has a taper on the body adjacent to the short boss.

I use a bunch of M30 Form A washers to protect the long boss, and drive the bush taper first - The washers are pennies each from a decent engineers merchants.
