Frozen bolt in bushings Sign In

I have bolts frozen into the rear control arm bushings of our Geo Tracker. I can't get the control arm off as the front bushing is the same way as the rear. Any ideas on the best way to get them out and possibly still use the stock bushing?

You're going to need an acetylene torch and a whole lot of experience and you still may do some damage.

And there is no reusing the bushing after that.
