Changing the shock bush but the old brass bush in the eyelet of the shock is TOTALLY welded in. No amount of persuasion is budging it. ANy solution ? Thought maybe cutting away a small section with a hack saw blade and then maybe pushing ? It should cut easy as its brass.

Alternatively, Vortex if you read this any chance I can borrow you bushing tool ?

Heat is the key - and you can easily make up a press with bolts and spacers. Sockets make good spacers
