I went ahead and ordered new rear shocks for both sides, and new bolts. I'm going to try drilling the one bolt out, as half the threads (the upper half) are probably still ok. I also need to figure out how to disconnect the parking brake cable from the drum.

I *might* just leave the shot main bushings in the rear trailing arms until I get the car to Michigan, maybe put some fill in them to reinforce them a bit, and replace them once there.
