Probably better to just leave to bush in...Better for flex but depends how stiff your new bushes are.. 
I had nonthane with my kingsprings. But im just using the stocko rubber ones now as i fixed my wobble problem.. Rubber are meant to be flexier |

carve as much of the rubber out as you can then get a chisel into teh gap where the spring eye wraps around and smash the outer sleeve in to collapse it or leave the sleeve behind and burn the rubber out, the nolathane bushes will still fit |

youd probably be better going to bunnings and grabbing a gas torch thingy for $25 to do it, will come in handy later too |
