You can get a 12 ton shop press from Harbor Freight or Walmart or Amazon for $100 or less that would do what you need to do. It's just a frame with a bottle jack and the bottle jack can be replaced if yours ever wears out. I bought one probably 30 years ago. Don't use it very often, but when I need one, it's indispensable.
I got the big tap from ebay for cheap. Still takes muscle to screw it into the bushing shell, but it's a lot easier and cleaner than the hammer and chisel method I used to use.
