I got the bushing out, I had to use some metal roofing screws and properly applied force, but it'll be much tighter when a good bushing goes back in. Now it's time to collect some parts and put it back together after a little more degreasing, 'adjustment' with a heavy hammer, and paint. Not a restoration, just putting it back in proper cub working clothes, and addressing issues. =)
I agree with the others, tho, paint quality from this era machine is, well, lacking.
