How do I remove & replace the rear diff mounts?

I don't have a hydraulic press to press out the old mounts, and the FSM says to just hammer on the outer edge to get it out... that didn't work.

I can figure a way to get the new mounts in, thats not a problem.

I just need to know how to remove the old ones.

I removed a bunch of my bushings with a propane torch. You could try that, if you have some kind of torch handy.
