Can anyone recommend a good (and preferably reasonably priced) bush tool for use on the D2?

Many thanks

would you like to define 'bush tool'?

Don't waste your money. I just finished replacing the rear lower link bushes on my Disco. I took the link arms to a friends garage and he tried pressing out the rear bushes with a press. Guess what he couldn't shift them! I ended up drilling out the rubber, then hammering out the inner sleeve, then hacksawing the outer sleeve and then removing it with a chisel. There is not a tool on the market that would have made the job easier! I replaced them with top quality Polybushes which don't need any tools to fit, just a little bit of grease and push them in. ;)
 
When slippling in the new (OEM not poly) bushes would using heat on the radius arm / panhard rod / other and popping the bish in a freezer remove the need for pressing them in?
