Lower strut mounting bolt seized.

[raiderfan]

I'm replacing the front strut assemblies on the truck and the lower strut bolt will not come out. I cut the tabs off of the strut to get it out and out of the way. I tried the impact and the air hammer, Big hammer, nothing.
If I hot wrench the bushing out how hard is replacing the bushing? Can I put the new bushing in the freezer and warm up the control arm and push it in? How about a big C clamp.
Looking at Moog K200183.

The hot wrench is your friend. Easy. Job, torch the old bushings out and replace. I put the new ones in the freezer and heated up the control arm a little. Tapped the new ones in with a big socket and a hammer.

X2. No point in fighting it when its cheap enough to replace
