Bieng creative
I took my A-Arms off before I thought about taking the mounting shaft end nut off of the lower arms and I had to cut the ubolts to get the shaft off. So I had to get creative to get some weight on the arms so I had any chance of turning those nuts. Having my sons truck around sure did help.

I had mine mounted in a huge vise and 1 3/8" socket and a 3/4" breaker bar to bust those stubborn bushings loose.
