Default Problems Installing Rear Camber Kit

I purchased the Megan Racing rear camber arms with the intent of throwing them on last weekend. I ran into problems when it came to remove the end that bolts to the car through the bushing. I got the nut off fine, but it seems as though the bolt is seized inside the busing. I've used PB blaster, hammered it, heated it with a torch, attempted to press it out with a c-clamp and ball joint tool attatchment... All with no luck. Finally I said forget it and tried to use a sawzall to just cut the bolt but it ate through blades and did next to nothing. Has anyone else had this issue? If so what did you do to get the bolt out, or just remove the arm in general?

Got a pic of that part you're sawing? Would like to see your issue specifically to better advise.

I also had a problem when installing my Megan rear camber arms, but mine was related to the ball joint end of the camber arm. Yours seems to be an issue with the factory suspension.
