brings back bad memories . You might have to take the bushing out to get the bolt out, that is what i had to do and just replace the bushing . Did you bend the cylinder , i had to cut the cylinder in half to get it out as well.Its not that hard ,done it plenty of times

yes you can replace the bushings, they are just pressed in the rear .I think i got my bushings at car quest. I beat mine in with a hammer but be carful you could break the rearend where the bushing goes in, done that too .
