Default upper control arm bushings kicked my ...

so i destroyed my UCA bushing trying to install some steeda adjustables. i have to wait till tomorrow to finish the job.

any of you have problems with the old bushings coming out? mine seem like they were glued in and i didnt clean out the shaft well enough when in put the steeda bushing in so i F'd that peice all up.

these are the ones that are connected to the axle not the chassis. the chassis end is poly the axle end is rubber and i jacked the rubber peices up because i tried to rush the job.

after tomorrow my car will have one new rubber bushing supplied by steeda and the stock one with 90k miles on it.
