Stuck adjustable rear control arm?

Hey all,
I installed TSW rear ccontrol arms sometime last year and its been serving me great. I recently went under my car to crank in some more negative camber. It worked out great and I was happy for a week or two.

Then, I decided to adjust it today and woah, one side is just stuck frozen at a position! The middle piece just won't crank! I didn't have a open end wrench that will fit the middle piece so I tried it with a giant piler and failed.

Any tips on how to loosen this thing? The two end nuts are moving freely and away from the middle piece. !
