I decided that the pilot bushing-rubber part on the inside of the bushing-looked more worn down than the replacement one I got with the new roto, so I thought, OK I have heard its hard to get out, but really how hard can it be?
It can be very hard! At least in my case. After two days of trying to get it out with everything I had including a slide hammer, I gave up. Took it to a local auto/machine shop and an hour later they had it out. Had to totally destroy the old bushing, had to crimp all the edges just to get rid of the adherence that it had on the inner part of the driveshaft. If you have some major cutting tools, then you can get it destroyed enough yourself to get it out. But it was not easy at all for me. I have heard people using torches to get the driveshaft warmer and expand but whatever, just bring it to an autoshop and have them get it out for you. You probably dont NEED to change it, but I figured hell, the shaft is off (couldnt get it compressed enough personally to get the roto off, so I had the whole thing taken off) might as well change the part. So, if you have a few 'days' that you dont need your truck, do the bushing, if you need your truck in 3 hours, dont do it....have fun!
