Nightmare of a job swapping the struts on my 2011 Ram 1500. All sorts of nasty rusty hardware underneath even though the truck looks great from the exterior. Lower bolt fused to the inner steel sleeve in the bushing. No amount of torching, chiseling, impacting, very little access for cutting. Rented $400 of various ball joint and axle presses from advanced auto and finally got it out and pressed in a new one. (The other side took 20 minutes. That pissed me off too, actually.)
Tweaked my back in the process and had to shut down for 3 days. I just LOVE caveman suspension work.
