I think people normally use a press. Or make your own little puller type thinggggg. If you get the correct puly bush ones I think they come in two pieces, making it super easy to get it in.

 a decent vice will do the job just fine. you`ll need to keep turining the arm to get the bush in even and do it bit at a time though. the end result is the same if you cant get to a proper press.
