HELP!! tie rod problem

I'm attempting to take out my stock springs/struts and replace with some H&R springs


Here's the problem:

when i was unbolting the steering tie rod from the knuckle, the bolt and threaded rod sheared off even with the knuckle so know the tie rod is still connected and I have no way of poping it off as the bolt that was supposed to be removed has been sheared off along with the threaded rod it was connected to.

i guess i'm asking for suggestions as what to do next? I believe i've removed all the other necessary bolts in order to remove the strut but only this tie rod problem needs to be resolved in order to have the clearance needed to actually pull the strut out.
