A word of advice if you haven't installed this kind of bushing before:

Installing the Superpros with a vice, I found that what looked really easy in the instruction video turned out to be really difficult the first time.

Make sure you lube well, then use the stem of a large screw driver to help get the first end of the bushings into the hole. Apply some (quite a lot actually) of pressure to the side of the bushing that wants to pop out by using the screw driver as a crow bar. Just in case I didn't express this in an understandable way: The screw driver does not go through the hole you are trying to get the bushing into, and don't use the tip of the screw driver anywhere near the bushing.

Took me 45 minutes and a lot of sweat to get the first one in, then the next five took 2 minutes each...
