okay heres my problem.
I am replacing my endlinks, i have the sway bar off.
All I have are endlinks stuck to the car.
One one side, everythings intact.
on the other side, I attempted to cut them off, but I cant figure out how to cut them OFF
all that ive done is cut the end that doesnt have the nut on it
Its almost flush with the mounting surface
what the heck do i do people? help me out

If they're the stock endlinks I just just cut them off, it was a real b_i_TC-H though. Hard to believe two bolts can take an hour to get off.:mmad:

Here is what I did....I just put a crow bar on them and "popped" them out....that is they are just a little ball joint that have a "shell " crimped around them...

after I popped them apart, I grabbed the round part with a vise grip and turned the nut out...:mangel:

they arent the stock ones
they're the progress ones, but I got them out anyway and put in the v2's so its straight
I had to take the wheel off and drop the LCA and drill through it.
The other one I managed to get off with enough pb blaster
