    So I've done this before...and had trouble...but I'm currently stuck with the driver side lower sway bar ....front. Ive resorted to cutting it off and not having much luck. Any hints? I can't get a good angle on anything.

    I couldn't get to the lower sway bar Link....but I was using a Dremel. Switched to a sawzall metal Blade and all is good . Everything gets so rusty here.

    I found it simpler to turn the nuts counterclockwise.
