Thanks for the video...
I think that you are basically saying that I'm down to either hoping the oil breaks it loose from the metal part of the bushing... And my vive grips get enough grip to keep the inner bushing metal from spinning... Or just sawsall it out and buy a new bolt?

I was facing that last year, but my wife kept saying give that oil a chance to work! Hell I took out the steering rack, front Swaybar , rear transmission mount to get in there, turned out the driver’s side is rather easy to get to, but not as easy as the passenger side.

When I finally got mine out... the bolt was plenty wet with PB blaster... it was rusted solid to the bushing until I broke it free by grinding those flats on the bushing and grabbing them with straight jaw vice grips... and twisting the bolt out with a 4 foot 3/4" breaker bar
