Rear suspension mounting lower bolt

At the back end of the trailing arm box section a "bolt" goes right through and the lower eye of the suspension unit bolts to this fixture. The outer end is a rounded cap so it may not be made to be removed. One side is a bit waisted by corrosion and would be better replaced. Any ideas if this is removable?

Struggling to picture what you are looking for, have you got a photo?

Thanks for reply but no photo but as you look at the back end of the trailing arm you are looking at a square box section open end. Across the box section is a "bolt" with a rounded head at the wheel side, about 12mm diameter through the box section and reducing in diameter to about 10mm where it stick out about 50mm as a mounting bolt for the lower eye on the shock absorber. The fact that the wheel end has arounded head makes me wonder whether it is pressd in?

Thanks for that it certainly just looks like a bolt - perhaps it is just mostly corroded away - many thanks.
