I went through the same problem a few months ago. I had to heat the bolts until the rubber melted and released the bolt. Of coarse this ruins the bushings.(its like the bolts rust and just weld themselves to the rubber. AutoZone was the only parts store that I could find that could order the bushings. Their bushings are not a perfect fit and I had to trim the rubber flange just a bit with a utility knife before I could get them to slide into the arms. I used 4X Silicon Release spray for lube. If I could do it all over again, I would measure the inside diameter and call Energy Suspension and try to find Polyeurathane bushings that would fit. Pete
