Update The tap was the way to go. Borrowed one, turned it in about halfway through the bushing and pressed it out.
Next problem was after reassembly of the front end, I now have a bull frog croaking on both sides. After asking questions again, turns out that the aftermarket struts or lower control arm anchors are out of adjustment. They were on the car when I bought it. Loosened them up and the bullfrog left. So that was my problem all along, but I now have new delrins and shafts. Will try and get them adjusted per advice from 72bluNblu.
Thanks again to all!
