Had the same problem used a sledge and a torch to heat the tie rod then used the liquid propane to rapidly cool the stud. very dangerous but it worked after 2 blows with the sledge.

Nutserts finally shipped, two weeks later. Hopefully I will have bumpstops installed this weekend, I think I'm gonna run 5-6 inch lift 5100s in the front, because I'm gonna be running about 2 extra inches of bump and it is the same price for the longer shock. Probably do the same in the rear I'll probably be running more than two additional inches of bump though.

Are you going to be able to droop that much in the rear? Sounds like a good plan

Pfff no, but why not get the longer ones if my up travel is limited anyway?, if I decide I need to compensate for something later in life I'll already have the shocks.
