It's kind of a PITA. Its easy to get them out but hard to get them in and hard to get them to stay in - they keep wanting to pop out. When I did them in hot weather I put them in the freezer to shrink them. I don't know if that helped. The tricky part was getting the center bolt back in while the mount was trying to slide out. I put a jack under the big bolt and jacked the bolt into its seat. That was a bit scary as it have been easy to cross-thread it
