HELP!! Sway bar end link stuck
Hey guys,
I was installing some new coilovers got 3 done without any issues. Front driver side however is giving A TON of issues. After solving most of them I am down to this. My Sway bar end link is just frozen. I removed the nut at the bottom as i did the other side however this was was really stuck on there and when i did the end link did not slide out like the other side its stuck BAD. I tried to remove the upper nut to get the entire thing lose but it wont budge. used PB Weld and a breaker bar and it seems to just start stripping the nut and the socket gets stuck on the nut. I wanted to get some advice here. Next steps im thinking are applying heat, or putting most of it together and getting it towed to a shop which is embarrassing and a sign of failure... i font want that.
Wanted to know if anyone has had this issue, how they solved it. anyone have any advice I dunno i just need some help here. I attached photos.
