R53 upper engine mount bushing removal possible?
Can the upper engine mount dampner bushing that is mounted to the passenger strut tower be pressed out or removed? I want to have it powder coated along with my other engine mounts but am unsure if the stock rubber bushing can be removed or pressed out and then re-installed after powder.

What was pressed in can be pressed out...how do you think they got it in there...
. They should be able to PC it with the bushing in. You would probably damage the coat anyways pressing it back in....
