Toss them in your freezer for an hour or two, hammer them down. Put a piece of wood in between the hammer and the bushings so you don't hurt them

If you can use a torch to heat the subframe up as well as freezing the bushings they should just drop in. Seriously. When everything cools/warms respectively they will be a tight fit.

I've tried freezing them then hammering them and tried using a nut an bolt as a make shift press and they won't go in

Wow I second pogstar. I did the same thing and they went right in, no need for a press. What brand did you get?
