    Here are a few pictures, I welded a piece of 3 inch x 1/4 inch angle to the bumper and then welded the hinge to the angle.
    Got the hinge here: http://www.4xinnovations.com/Swing-Out-Tire-Carrier-Hinge-Assembly_p_109.html

    Did you have to heat them up to press them out? I bought all new OEM bushings as well and was kinda stressing it would be a PITA to get the whole bushing and sleeve out

    ****EDIT**** never mind saw your post in what did you do today

    Use a bottle jack to put pressure on them and it takes very little heat for them to pop out, very easy.
    The link below is the guide I used but I did not remove the lower ball joint from the knuckle nor did I separate the outer tie rod.
