I need to Dremel through the bolt itself, flush with the control arm bracket. The Dremel is 90ยบ off from that. Plus, there is that lip, so that nothing can get up flush with the bracket wall and still cut through the nut and bolt.

A Dremel pointed back there, running lengthwise from front to rear of the vehicle (the only way it will fit) will have the wheel cutting from side to side. That is why I will probably get the right angle attachment, which will allow me to get to the area with the tool perpendicular to the axle and the head also perpendicular to the axle.

You cannot get the Dremel in there where it is running parallel to the axle shaft, only perpendicular. I need the actual cutoff wheel to be running in the same plane as the vehicle's wheels.

The problem is the lip on the bracket.

I am not understanding you, here. Sorry...
