Put some light glock/lubricant on the bushing, make sure it lines up and knock on with a rubber/plastic mallet. Don't knock the hell out of it though.

Try a big c-clamp - piece of cake.

I used a Stanley carpenters pry bar, about a foot long.
I forget what I braced it against, but when you get the leverage just right it pops on easy.

Mine was a real pain. I tried everything, finally was able to get them in using the C-clamp method... on about the 32th try. Just keep at it, you'll get it eventually. Then you have one more to do.

When I did my bushings they were new (the white ones) Using a hammer was hopeless and I didn't have a C clamp that big. The pry bar method will work, but you need something more beefy than say a large screwdriver.
Wish I took a picture...
