ok, torch heat then a ball joint remover will take out both rear rear bushings but I only had to remove the leaf bushings. I can replace both rear rear leaf bushings with one kit.

I believe I can install those bushings back with lubricate and chilling with the ball joint installer also.

I will tackle the rear front to accept grease again next, I hope.
