Ah, mine came out, but one wouldn't go back in as one was cross-threaded, so I replaced them both with 10mm bolts, rather than have to drill the thread out to get a 12mm bolt through... although mine's mostly my daily-driver road car, it has been 'laned a few times, and done Tong once...
Jeez... must be one hell of a job if the bolt is actually stuck in there?!
I see JimnyBits sell the(m with) bolts... www.jimnybits.co.uk/shop/jimny/suspensio...-spacers/prod_5.html
I used these - www.bits4vits.co.uk/store/nuts-39-n-39-b...3-lift/prod_555.html - as I have them in stock for Vit +3" Bodylifts...

I think the confusion was mostly my fault there. sorry guys.
I read the first part thinking it was sheared bolt you had.
anyways, it was a nightmare 'jimny-dave' but a good drillbit in my case was vital. and patience to get it started straight.
the bolts were solid and after heat etc i still managed to snap them both.
much better now with the stud and nylocks though and would recommend to do it (sheared bolt or not)ha
