Hi,
The bush removal tool looks good but all the ones I've done have come out easily with a 12mm bar. It does chew up the bush end a bit but that dresses up and the bush is long enough for that not to be significant. Measure the end float without the bush, then minus the residual flange thickness and fit a shim behind the top hat on refitting. Final adjustment on the gaskets behind the layshaft flanges with various grades of brown paper, or nothing other than sealant. Swopping syncro dogs from another cluster has worked for me, they don't seem matched or difficult as Bob suggests; a smear of Loctite then pened in place?
