Ill do that next time, im planning on locknut with lock washer with red loctite. @ 13-15 ft lbs. lol
There's a tool for that. It inserts into the bearing and then a stem is tightened which exerts pressure towards the inner wall of the bushing. Once that's tight, you turn an outer bolt that applies pressure to an outer collar that sits just outside of the bushing on the hub. As the bolt is turned, it forces the bushing out. You can find them on Taobao.

If the bushings aren't sloppy, I wouldn't bother at this time.
