Default no go on lower control arm rear bushing

Hi all. Dug into this with my son and after 8 hours of frustration, we ended up with the last(rear) lower control arm bushing bolt frozen to the metal sleeve of the bushing. We used a torch(we had a fire for a while and almost a can of PB Blaster and a chisel, sledgehammer- the best we could with the short throw, but it wouldn't budge it. The only way we see this coming out is to sawzall the bolt out and replace it. Any ideas? The front bolt of the control arm came right out, and the rest of the bolts- lower ball joint, control arm link and brake hardware all came out without much of a fight. The rear bushing was the one that was terribly deteriorated and I am sure that has something to do with it. All was not lost, as my son learned a good deal of patience, which is a lost virtue among young people today.
