The stock bushing is actually inside of a metal sleeve. You have to cut/knock the sleeve out. This is also why you probably had such a bitch getting the rubber bushing out in the first place.

Had that same problem. I took mine somewhere and had them just do the rear because the press we had couldn't do it. They got them to go in but they were bulging out and i had to work them back into the subframe.
