drill it out, or mabye you coul use some vice grips to wrench it out through the back

 

how i did it was cut the welded on nut off and beat out the bolt once it was off

 

drill it if you can...best of luck

 

I was advised against using things like e-z outs.
The trailing arm one is a bitch, I had the same one break. I tried cutting through both sides of the both with a sawzall, and then pulling out the remaining fragments, but I did not have enough left to grab onto. I ended up taking it to a shop, where I suspect they got it out with a super hot oxy-acetylene torch + vice grips.

 

Drill it out , If u exceed the diameter replace with bolt and nut unit use washers as spacers if it dances around. You might also replace the LCA's. Thats probably why it broke the thread seized to the bearing. Re-thread it to and use lots of anti-seize.

 

what are the LAC's??

 

LCA's Lower Control Arms

 

heres what you do...

cut the other end of, between the bushing and hub assembly. this will disconnect you from the hub, then tale the other 2 bolts out on t he arm and take it to a press if available. press out eh middle section of the bushing out and then the outer ring in still in the arm. (the middle will seperate and rip the rubber.)
once that is done press out the ring witha socket or what i do is place the arm ina vise and use an air hammer with a chisel bit. place the bit on the metal ring of the bushing nad blast away. usually once you get halfway the bushing will fly out. you will ten havet to remove the bolt from the nut on the hub or break it off the hub witha 17mm and breaker bar or air hammer. then repalce with aregualr nut.

you will have to buy a new bushing from honda and bolt too. really isnt too bad, may take about a 1/2 if you have air and press.
