cut it off with a whizz wheel or burn it off with a torch. or cut the nut off the other end of the LCA an use a nut and bolt to replace it.

youll also need new lca bushings.

theres no set way to remove them, just get to cuttin. its all apart of the fun of auto mechanics!!!! i mean why pay a pro when you can do it yourself! lol. HAVE FUN

if u got new lcas, just cut that bolt off, and if u can get the end out of the threaded hole on the car then ur good, if not, grind off that welded on nut piece that it threads on too and get a nut and bolt
