Tried the long bolt technique but the bush tends to twist rather than go into the housing. The steel insert is removed.

You might need a locating collar to keep the free end of the long bolt centered in the hole. Use soap or washing up liquid to lubricate it. (Avoid oil, because some rubbers don't react well to some oils.)
