Thuren track bar help

Hey guys, it appears that the bolt that runs threw the ball end of the bar was put in the opposite direction, further more I thinkk the bar needs a rebuild on that end, problem is I cant get it out, the nut is off, and I had the wife turn the wheel to get the pressure off the bolt but no luck, do I need to remove the bolt from the axle side as well? its no big deal to re-center the axle but I wanna make sure I put it back in correctly and make sure it doesnt need to be rebuilt, If it does then I might be the 1st person to tear one up, Thanks for any help.

If you have an older thuren trackbar, you might want to mention the problem to don thuren before you just buy the rebuild parts. Some of them there was too much space between the tubing and the sleeve and it moved around so he has a different repair kit for that.
