Hey guys. I need to know where I can find another one of these because my sway bar link has seized inside and won't come off so I e cut the link and would rather buy another than cut the link out. Or is it effortless to cut out? I'm not really sure how to do it so any advice would be great
 
I have a few a could sell you, but it should be pretty damn easy to cut out. Were you able to get the nut off off and now the shaft is frozen or is the nut the issue?

When I put an Alan in the middle and turn it with the socket it just spins inside of the dust covers
 
If you pull the dust boot back on the back side from the nut you will see some flats that fit a 14mm open end wrench. These are to hold things so you can break the nut free.

I ended up cutting the link before I asked this question but now I'm stuck here. How can I keep the ball from spinning inside the boot?

Judging by the condition of the stud threads, you may likely need to cut off the nut. A pneumatic air grinder and/or dremel would make quick work of it. Be careful as you get close to the sway bar as you do not want to damage it. You could also cut at the nut to split it off as well. You are not encountering a rare problem with the OE style links. I would suggest Moog replacements.
 
The links with the Allen key socket came with the 2Gb build, but replacement links from Mitsu are the 2Ga design, with the 14mm flats on the back side - they're much better quality.
