Default upper control arm anchor bolt

I'm rebuilding the suspension on an '89 CRX HF, and have decided to go with the original, rubber upper control arm bushings. The factory service manual is vague on this procedure:

"5. Place each upper arm anchor bolt in a vice and drive out the upper arm bushings.

6. Drive in the new upper arm bushings into the upper arm anchor bolts."

Not very much guidance for this admitted non-pro mechanic.

Given this, what is the best way to "drive out" the old, rubber bushing and bushing shell, and more importantly, which is the best method for driving in the new Honda upper arm bushing?

T.I.A.
