Stuck swaybar links

[colo525i]

Tried replacing my ancient swaybar links today and came up with some problems. Even after covering them in PB blaster overnight they will not move even with 100+ ft-lbs of force. The bolts look to be rust damaged and softened somehow. I'm considering using an impact or a torch (at least on the lower bolts) Any suggestions on this one?

If heating doesn't work, you might have to grind them off.

That's what I did on the passenger's side top bolt 3 months ago. Cut it off, you're not reusing it anyway...
