removing sway bar end links

one side keeps popping off so i've just decided to remove everything, i went under and got the 4 mounting bolts off, but the bolt on the bottom of the lca just spins the end link when i try to remove it?

how do you guys remove your end links when it spins like this? heat??

theres a wrench flat on the top of the end link. but one wrench on top one on bottom and proceed to loosen and remove the end link.
