Lower control arm outer bushing shell removal frustration...
My tool.
dont even need to fire up the compressor. Cut a slit down the side, then tap yourself a little tang off the side and grab it with some needlenose vicegrips. Turn in like your opening a can of sardines. My Lexus rear LCA's are the same to repair, cut out bonded rubber and sand smooth, tap in poly bushing with some KY and a hammer, assemble. The Lexus arms could be removed with a bolt an a nut through the center and then just turn it with a ratchet, it will rip itself out.
