So I ended up taking the entire strut tower and hub assembly off with the driveshaft still in it and pressing it out on my 20 ton press and it took a LOT of pressure to do so. then I drilled the bolt out and replaced it with a nut and bolt combo and finally got it all put back together. Ended up taking 12 hours from start to finish.
