with experience is required, but 30 seconds to remove and install, with the correct size devoted socket and hammer.

This is correct, by freezing the bushings the metal shrinks and will make them easier to install. You can also warm the ears which will make the metal expand making it even easier, but ya gotta be quick. To remove the bushings take a chisel and place the blade of the chisel along the length and collapse the steel shell inward and they will come right out.
