Putting on new quick disconnects and I can not get these splined bolt out of the bottom where the stock sway bar connection mounts. Any suggestions?

Heat and a hammer. It's a pain but it works.

You can use a pitman arm puller or tie rod end puller, thats how I got mine out.

PB Blaster and a ball joint tool should do the trick. Try not to beat it. If you heat it and slam the bracket with a hammer you'll probably bend it. Goodluck.

Welded a nut to it and got it to turn with a rachet and and bar. Had someone air chisel it out while I turned it. Came out in a few seconds.
