In addition to all the excellent advice above, I have considered buying a press for jobs such as this, started a thread a little while ago about it, worth considering if you have the space to keep it, cheaper than you might think, I haven't bought one yet but still considering it. Otherwise I'd definitely give Peter's scaffold pole method a go, you can often cadge a pole from scaffolders working nearby, or a fiver or a couple of cans of beer might do it. And just cut a section off with an angle grinder. Amazing how useful a scaffold pole is to have in your arsenal of tools, lifting and prying when working on suspension, or adding to a breaker bar for super difficult nuts/bolts, etc.
