Default Problem Installing Rear Swift Swaybar

It seems the swivel end of the rear endlinks that attach to the bar itself cannot be removed. The whole shank turns when I try to remove the nut. The other nut comes off, and the front worked fine, but I have a problem with the rears. What does eeveryone do for rear endlinks?

if we are talking about OEM sway bar end links, they have a 5mm (IIRC the size correctly) hex head female stud and the nut. use an allen wrench to hold the stud and then a wrench to loosen the nut. some liquid wrench might help you.

when i putted the 5mm hex in and tried to remove the bolt i completely ruined both hex studs.. it was a pain in the ass to remove the endlinks and you dont want to know what new ones costs at the dealer...

Felt liked they were welded together, and YES i used lubrication ( WD40 ) the front ones came of pretty easily tough..
