Bolt usually will rust-weld/seize in the bushing sleeve. Use a hacksaw or power saw to cut the bolt from the other side of the LCA You can then unscrew the threaded end of the bolt from the strut and you will have to replace the LCA bushing.
A decent torch flame on the bolt can sometimes reduce the chances of this.
