      x2 ive had this happen several times,,its 50/50 if itll break or not,,i hit the head of the bolt with a hammer a few times nd just go for it with a half inch wrachet,,if it breaks w/e just cut each end off and put a new bolt in..

                it comes down to the fact that if your taking those bolts out your changing the lca's that all there is to it.

                  Finally lowered my car, it was a 3 day process because of the cold weather in my garage and my dremel over heating but its finally done.. The subframe lca bolts came out like nothing and the hub lca bolt was siezed so I had to dremel the bolt on both sides and breaking the 3 spot welds on the nut holding the bolt.. What a stressful situation it is..

                    I soaked the bolts in PB for a night, came back to it did it again and still broke 4 of the six bolts. I used a saw zall to cut the snaped bolts out. I got 2 bolts out without breaking, went to acura in canton to get new hardware, 10bucks a bolt. You can cut a bolt out in like 10mins with the saw dont cut anything else though.
