Psyched to see a package from Trail Tailor arrive. This is going to make life easier replacing bushings

ya I'm tempted to order a set as my wits end set is mildly abused.
 
are you willing to sell these after you are done with them? I'm getting ready to tackle this job and don't really want to buy new for a one time task. please lmk.
 
@CharlieS : could you post up a photo of the pushing end of the tools?

Anyone have the dimensions of these tools ie: ID, OD, length, etc? (are the sizes marked?)

Is there any taper along the length (OD) or just a slightly chamfered starting edge?

Just post up a wanted add in the classified section I’m sure someone will rent you a set for cheep.
 
No taper as far as I can tell. No markings. There is the original Wits End design, and @TRAIL TAILOR made some improvements and released a newer design. I believe mine have the newer modifications.

Trail Tailor has a few pictures on his web site but here is a close up of one of mine.

For doing radius arm bushings, I have a set of 3/4 drive socket set that works very well. For the rear control arms, usually push out the rubber portion and saw the shell.
