A cut off wheel and an air hammer will make it a simple change over if your bolts are siezed. can use hardware store bolt's. Just make sure you use grade 8 bolts.

If you're using rubber bushings make sure you loosen all pivot points until the car is at your desired ride height, then tighten.
If you don't the bushings will fail prematurely.
Poly bushings will help here since they rotate freely.

speaking of that, an energy suspension bushing kit is never a bad idea
