Just chisel it to make a big wide slit in the end, then use a big flat head ect to turn it out or just drill and tap it out the thread will come out once the heads off I found.

I may give it a shot it seems as though the last owner lowered the rear and over tightened the torsion bar bolts or used a whizzy gun bloody fools

Chisel + hammer and patience usually works well Smile
