My Lyrik has developed a bushing slop, I plan to change the bushings myself, but I don't have the special tools required to remove the bushings. Anyone make a home made tool? Can you remove the bushings without the special tool?

P.S. those bushings are not cheap either.

You can use a socket set and a vise. Like this http://www.vorb.org.nz/howto-change-your-shocks-bushing-t24536.html
