Rattling noise when clutch pedal is depressed

Hello All, slow progress, too much work getting in the way! :)

I have run into a snag....I have to separate the ball joints to remove the drive shafts before lowering the engine.  The nuts came off okay but the ball joint bolts are really stuck.  Been belting them with a hammer, using a sacrificial nut.   I have been using WD 40 as a loosening agent but I think they are really rusted in.....theu use lots of salt on the roads here!   

I'm going to try some special "rusted bolts loosening spray" and see if that helps.  When I tried to turn them with a TORX, the torx started to shear!   

If you have any ideas for getting them out please let me know!
