Rick,

Since your are taking them out there is no harm damaging them.  I have been
collecting tools for a few years, here is how I did mine.

Popped the center metal ring out.  I heated mine by shoving a welding rod
inside the center tube with the amperage turned way up.  They basically
popped out by themselves from the heat.

Next I cut the rubber bushing in half with a reciprocating saw. A hacksaw
blade or jigsaw would work too.

Now using an air chisel, I could push the rubbers out.

Finally all that is left is the outer metal shell.  With the air chisel I
collapsed the shell and it fell out.

Reinstallation:  I used a 5lb hammer and a block of wood and hammered them
in.

Mark
