Question Any Caltrac Install Advise?

Anything Specific I need to know before installing my Caltracs this Sunday??
I see that the hardest part will be the leaf spring bushing, but will there be anything else that will cause any issues?

you'll need an air hammer w/chisel and a hydraulic press to install the aluminum bushings in the leaf springs.

Question

If I will not be using a torch, can I still get the bushings out?
