This is the proper job (check correct diameter) but you still need a vice.

They don't take much pressing. I've used a vice (or vice and socket) alone with no problem.

I think I also used to use two sockets with a long M6 bolt through them. That's probably the cheapest...

Socket + (smaller socket+1/4" extension) + hammer/vice = jobbed 😀

They're about £8 on eBay sometimes including a couple of bushes. Pretty basic but do the job. Happy with mine.

Yeah, get that one. He's a STWist, and General Good Guy Who Gives A Lot Back, if that influences your decision. (no it's not me!)

Offset bushings do one which works well

I have that eBay one and it's great. Not much more to say than that.
