So I have been knocking off the rust on my frame and went to remove the swing arm to sand on it also and etc...and this is what happened:

fortunately it is a kobalt and I will get it replaced.



So...any other ideas on how to get if off?

What am I looking at? Is that a large allen wrench socket set-up? If it is, I would suggest you buy a regular allen wrench and a heavy soft hammer (lead) to break that bolt loose. Then you can use that socket wrench set-up to remove the bolt.

Did you remove the locknut first?
