Default HELP OEM Suspension stuck in bottom bracket

In the process of swapping out my 92 LS oem suspension w coilovers the oem strut has become stuck in the bottom bracket that holds it in front passenger side. Strangely this problem did not happen on the drivers side, just the passenger side. It was also very difficult to remove the bolt that GPRS through the strut but that has been removed. Also I have a spring compressor on there to help. I have no access to a computer at the moment so I can't upload pictures yet. but I leave for 5 months in about a week and a half and cannot have the car up on jackstands for that long. I thought about using a crowbar to pry it loose while loosening the nut on the right side of the bracket but any suggestions will be most helpful.

Thank you so much!
