Most of the bushes in BA-FG and SX-SZ rear are 40.2mm diameter. The smallest in that kit is 44mm so too big to push the old bushes out.

Not sure on the solid axle rear sorry. Just trying to make sure you check what size bushes you are likely to be working with before buying tools. No point having the set if doesn't actually have the sizes you need.
