This might not make any sense but, the 2nd front bushing that is about a inch inside the torque tube,
might come out easier with the 1st front bushing you pulled out put back into the torque tube.
Just don't put it in all the way, put it in about half way.
Those bushing are press fit, so in order for them to fit snugly their outside diameter
is slightly larger than the inside diameter of the torque tube.
When the bushing is pressed in, it expands the wall of the torque tube.
So if you put the 1st one next to the 2nd one, the torque tube will expand outward, which lessens the wall pressure on 2nd one or both.
Its kind of like a marble inside of a rubber hose. The bulge in the hose is where the marble is.
Lesser torque tube wall pressure on the 2nd front bushing might do the trick.
