Default Help with Steering Stabilizer Bolt Clearance!

Hey all,

I'm trying to upgrade to a rough country dual stabilizer setup. I can't the lower bolt out of the bracket. The bolt won't clear. Anyone have a trick? I tried jacking it up a little and prying on it, but no dice.

Thanks all, let me know if you need pictures and I'll go take some.

maybe I should just cut it and get a new one and install the nut on the front?

What are you doing that you need a dual stabilizer setup? From what I've seen and heard they are mostly for show...
