Default 2nd accumulator bushing

Can't get it out. Looking for tips. The vanes aren't lining up enough to get it all the way with a flatblade. Any other tips??

I use a small dent puller that has a hook on the end.....A 5/16" nut with a manual valve link from a 700R4 welded on the side.

Hook it where the roll pin was, A few light taps will remove even the most stubborn accumulator bushings.

Got it out the other night. I was able to get a small bolt to partially thread into the end of it. I was able to twist it and wiggle it out. Probably not a proper way to do it, but it worked. Maybe this will help someone in the future.
