Default Need help with lowering teg. Plz help!!

I have a bit of a problem. I'm trying to remove my rear struts. But, the bolt going through the trailering arm and strut is like rusted shut. How the hell can I get this out? Do I need to replace the trailering arm? If so, anyone know where to get them super cheap?
I have tried: air gun, and drilling the bolt. Should I try to torch the bolt?
This is a major headache b/c I JUST got my H22 running and only got to drive it once so any help ASAP would be appriciated!

You mean the strut to the LCA? Torching would help but you will then need new bushings. Try using PB Blaster, I heard it works great against seized bolts.

You can find rear arms for 100 Shipped. and a new bolt from the dealer will work.

I anticipated the problem and used omni rears and a 3/8x16x2.5 or 1.5 grade 8 bolt with a washer on each side, some antiseeze and a locknut instead of the OE bolt
