Pressed in bushings?

Guys, I was looking at the rear trailing arm bushings on the c10, they look like they are pressed in, can anyone confirm that? Do they have to come all the way off to replace the bushings?

Thank you.

Yes, they are pressed in.
No, you don't have to remove the arms to replace the bushings.

The link goes to my write up on how I went about replacing mine.

Re: Pressed in bushings?

You're welcome. But it's more necessity being the mother of invention with laziness mixed in.
Thank you though.
