Bolt at left should be easy enough, cut as close to bush as possible. Other end cut through the bush and bolt dont get near the mounting lug.
Could an angle grinder be used with one of the very thin cutting discs?
I suppose it could with care.

If you have an air chisel, or SDS with hammer action... undo the nut from the axle bolt a few turns, to give you a cup/ recess on the end of the bolt - place the chisel/ bit inside that, and squirt - this will likely shock the bolt from the bush insert and drive it out ie without rotation... did on mine, and I was removing polys, where there's no adhesion between the bush and core by design, so turning the bolt is not an option. If you're removing polys they will likely melt at a sniff of a cutting tool and the bushes also bridge most of the gap between the RA and the Chassis bracket, but that's not an issue if they're the std ones. The added advantage for me is that the less time I have to spend lying on my back staring up at two tonnes of vehicle with missing front wheels the better, no matter how much I love my axle stands, 3.5T jack and wheels under the chassis rails, so going in from the side makes for a better experience
