my OEM rear sway bar has a rusted out end link. The passenger side has both bolts (upper/lower) rusted to the shaft. I can dremel cut the top one off, but the bottom one sits inside of a stout suspention arm, so I cant figure out how to get it out, I tried WD40, I tried prying the ball joint out, but still no dice.

I can torque on it but the shaft will spin in the ball joint.

I have the replacement end link, so i dont care about destroying the bad one, but i dont want to cut into the housing to get to it.

Any ideas on getting this off would be greatly appreciated!
