The inside diameter of the auto tranny pilot converter / bushing (Nissan part # 12330-42L00) is approximately 13/16" - I have used a snug fitting bolt and wedged it inside, actually force threading it in place enough to grip it and pull it out. Also, if you pack the inside of the bushing with grease and then fit a slightly smaller diameter bolt inside, you can then tap the bolt in, forcing the grease to "hydraulically" push the pilot bushing out. As the bolt goes in, pack a little more grease, tap it again, and you should see incremental movement of the bushing.
