Replacing gear shift bushes in remote/direct housing

Any tips on replacing these?

Since obtaining a 3.2 diff and making the decision to go 1098 with my build I might as well try and replace these as they’re pretty sloppy and I presume some new ones would tighten the change action up on the magic wand..

Use a 9/16 tap threaded into the bush and then just tap it out with a rod from the other end.

Also check for wear on the Ball of the remote diff cover cranked Lever ..( that cranked shaft Ball end that fits into the remote change fork ) i found mine with considerable wear apparent and fortunate i had a spare shaft as not too sure these are available in the repro market.
