Bad Day In The Garage Part 3

The Battle continues. I finally got the front suspension stripped down. I had to take a sawzall to the top trunion bolt to remove it. After removing the spring pans I have found that my lower trunion bolts seem to be solidly rusted in place. I am going to try taking them to a machine shop and have them pressed out. When I removed the wishbone arms and bushings it looks like there is a bushing that is left on the pivot. How about some ideas on removing these metal bushings. Also one of my sway bar links has proven its self difficult to remove. The stud rotates and I have no way to hold it to keep it from rotating to break the nut loose, any ideas?

Regards John
