Lower control arm outer bushing shell removal frustration...

Just pulled mine . After reading all the hard ships of getting the sleeves out and destroying everything. First I couldn't find just the shells anywhere so this led me to try and save the shells. I put the control arm in the vice and used my drill with a small drill bit . I drilled into the rubber all the way around. Keep doing this until the rubber starts to come out in chunks, then I take a screw driver and pry the inner sleeve out. If your careful you won't damage the sleeves. Mine were a little scratched but nothing a fine file can't dress up.
