Front lower A-Arm removal help.
I decided to do a major overhaul of the suspension on my 99. After taking most of the front end apart I have found that ll the joints are shot. Additionally all the bushing are beyond dry rot. The problem I have is that I have no idea how to remove the rear bolt on the lower control arm. I was able to remove the nut off the bottom but I am unable to even have the bolt budge at all. Since it is in a tight corner I cannot get in there with a cutoff wheel. I have tried a few made for metal sawz-all blades and have had no luck. Short of a cutting torch does anyone have any suggestions?
Additionally has any one painter their's with Rust-o-leum? I have heard good things about it but was wondering if anyone has had any luck.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

I used Rustoleum on the arms once they were out, they're certainly not scratch proof, LOL! Once I touched up the places it was scratched on installation, it looked great. Good Luck!
