Here she is off of the car! About time! Now to install new ones with some new springs! (In the top left of the picture you can see the metal insert in the bushing, glad I only had trouble with one...)

^^This guy knows what I'm dealing with! Lol it is no fun at all! Those are actually what I was using yesterday and I went through 5 of them just getting the one end of the bolt hacked off, albeit with my terrible form... Yup I went out and bought that carbide tipped Diablo blade and wow...

Alright great! I'll definitely go grab one in the morning and put it through the mill. Hoping one blade at a slower pace will cut through it! Thanks for all the help guys, I'll report back sometime in the morning to tell you how it went!!

Yeah that thing looks like a beast, might as well go pick one up just to try it out as the Lenox I was looking at isn't sold anywhere around here it doesn't look like. Its worth a shot!

Awesome, and here is the picture, I tried to make it as visible as possible. The metal sleeve surrounds the bolt, both of which need to be cut through, in about a 1/4" of space... Sorry for the massive picture...

I'll check them out, I believe home depot stocks diablos. I can try to show you what I'm dealing with, but yeah as trentonmakes said, its a bolt stuck in a metal sleeve. Alright I'll be sure to turn down the speed when I get back to it! Thanks!

Maybe that's been my problem, first time sawzall user =/. Full speed ahead was my thought lol. The sawzall I rented has a dial from 1-6, I had it on 6.

Awesome, I'll check them out! Thanks! Now would these be better than the diamond tipped Lenox blade? http://www.lowes.com/pd_294633-28303-ES-10833___ Haha if I was doing this by hand I would be at it for a week lol. Lol that's how I felt after just cutting the one end off! It'll be great...

Alright I'll check out the lennox blades when I run to the hardware store tomorrow, and yeah its a tiny little space available for cutting and I don't think I could get enough leverage using a hacksaw. I have even thought about a cutoff wheel if I could somehow slide one in there.

So I was replacing lower control arms on my 89 5.0L mustang, but the bolt is seized in the bushing. I have been recommended to just use a sawzall and cut it off on either end. This is turning out to be much bigger of a chore than I realized, I got the end of the bolt chopped off, but I used...
