I'M HAVING PROBLEMS BREAKING LOOSE THE NUT ON THE SRUT LINK BOLT ON THE R/R STRUT ASSEMBLY, & I HAVE USED PLENTY OF PENETRATING OILS/SPRAYS ETC.

I DID NOTICE WHAT APPEARS TO BE AN ALLEN/HEX TYPE HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE LINK BOLT.

DO I NED TO TREAT THIS AS A LOCKING TYPE WHERE I HOLD THE BOLT WITH AN ALLEN WRENCH AND LOOSEN THE NUT WITH A WRENCH-OR HOW WOULD I BREAK THIS NUT LOOSE TO SAVE THE STRUT LINK?

Very tough to do
most of the time we end up cutting it off or using heat
