Default Rear Control Arm Problem

Both of my rear lower control arms are rusted making it impossible to remove the bolt to replace struts. I tried for hours with every method to bust it loose. Heated it and eventually snapped the stud off. Is there going to be any way to get that bolt out of there and salvage the control arm? And if i fear that it cant where can i find some cheaper control arms, there is no way in hell i am paying $200 for one goddamn control arm, thats insane.

Nope unless you have a drill press or take it to a machine shop...I picked up some stock lcas at a junkyard for 50 bucks with bolts...Or you can get some aftermarket ones for about 100 or so.
