I've heard the grease trick all my life and I have tried it several times on different applications, have never once been even remotely sucessful. Do yourself a favor and go directly to the proper tool...a slide hammer with the appropriate end on it. They rent cheap, (actually free rent from AutoZone) and you won't cobble everything up using it. Even with the correct tool, those bushings don't come out easy. Once you get it out you'll see what I mean, that is not the place to be pokin and pryin, gotta use the right tool here.
