Clifford Pope's method is how I do it too. Your problem is perhaps that the quality of the new bushes is poor. Even Volvo ones. For droplink bushes you could spend a bit more and get poly ones. SuperPro are good -- not too hard. When I had a Mazda Bongo I had to change the front droplinks every six months or so because the aftermarket ones were all so bad and didn't hold up on Norfolk's rutted and potholed lanes.
