1966 c-20 tracking arm bushings

has anybody replaced there tracking arm bushings on a 3/4 ton truck? i got my 3/4 ton bushings from lmc truck, i got the old ones out with the drill bit method , how do you get the new ones in? with a press? the lmc bushings are .020 oversized than the tracking arm holes. it doesn't seem like there gonna press in with that much oversize. any one replace theirs yet? thanks

I replaced mine, I used a torch to burn them out, then I used wd40 to put the new ones back in.
