Looks like maybe a cut off and new track arm.

Thanks.

You mean get a wrench between the ball joint and the sleeve it sits through?
What would be the best way to cut it?

Might try a saws-all with a high-speed steel blade. Second wold be a 4" angle grinder with a thin cutoff wheel. Last would be a die grinder similar cutting blade. It's probably easier to cut the nut than the actual tapered shaft, in which case you might get away with a cutting wheel on a Dremel.
