Total cost should be $10-20. I bought the biggest socket at Biltema (Scandinavian equivalent of Halford's) since I had a feeling I would have to modify it.
Needed parts:
M12 threaded rod, cheap steel (not stainless) is OK
M12 nuts
Large washers, I used 50x50x5mm. Thickness is important, 3mm (1/8") WILL bend.
46mm socket as receiver, you will have to grind it a bit to clear the diff bell for the right hand bushing.
Socket for a driver, I used 27mm for the first bit, then 25mm for getting the bushing all the way through the hole. Just make sure the socket you use does not expand the bushing, the way most sockets are made this means it will not pass through the hole.
With a bit of modification to the largest socket, this tool should also work fine as VR2023. I'll post a picture once I have made it.
