it needs to be cut off - best to replace the entire upper arm - just had mine replaced and the upper arm was a mess by the time the garage managed to get it off. Good job I have bought a complete arm..
PM TheLargeOne and he can give you a full list of all the bits you need, and supply Duncan

cut them bolts loose the only way
i open the nut (by turning the bolt togrther with the inner part of the bush
after that can gain enough acces to use angle grinder
but for someone doing it first time gigsaw highly recommended
