Pilot bushing removal
The trick I have heard of (but never tried myself) is:
1. Find a dowel (or use the frontshaft of the transmission) that is a slip fit into the pilot bushing.
2. Fill the bushing center with thick grease.
3. Align the dowel with the hole in the bushing and give it a sharp rap with a hammer driving the grease down into the hole.
The grease is supposed to pop the bushing out.
Be sure to wear eye protection.
