penetrating lube (PB blaster is best). . . and use a jack to jack up the suspension a bit

the threaded side. The two pins on the control arms are contored so that you cant pull them out of the knuckle until you pull that bolt out.
Just keep working it, it'll come out.

and still not moving! i bit the **** out of the bolt! that the treads are too "fat" now and i'll have to cut the ends of and still not moving!
can i get PB blaster and advance auto parts?

Air hammer

Or if that's not an option...when all else fails, use a bigger hammer

German Driver

hammer and twist and use jack to raise rotor and suspension to relieve pressure on bolt

Ultrasport-Sal

Also try a torch to heat the knuckle up.
