I am changing a 2.5L engine. The torque converter stub shaft inerts into a guide bushing in the crankshaft. The replacement engine bushing is smaller than the orginal and I need to remove and swap them. How do I remove them?

Pack it with grease and select the correct shaft to pound it out or get a puller
