Default Lower Shock Bolt Stuck

Has anyone had an issue removing the lower bolt in order to get the rear shock off? I used PB Blaster and that thing is really on there. Any recommendations? I would hate to break it.

Very common problem, the rear lca bolts love to seize up. Try a little heat, if not you'll have to cut it off. Had the same problem with my car. Just remember to use lots of anti-seize upon re-assembly.
