All right, I got it! The drivers side bolt was a PITA, we ended up welding a bolt to the top plate of the bushing and using it to catch on the frame and hold the bushing in place. The other side came out tons easier, we soaked it in Kroil and zapped it out with an impact. Pops cut his hand up while welding the bolt.
I also got the new bumper on before the bull bar, there's a before and after pic.
I'll get a good picture of the truck with the bull bar soon!
