Assistance with rack and pinion replacement

Hi! I am swapping my rack and pinion on my 2017 sti. This thing is r u s t y! I can’t seem to separate the rack from the steering column. I have the bolt removed and I’ve been prying the thing with a flathead, and spraying pb blaster for literally days now. I’m debating removing the top bolt and removing the entire assembly. Any comments here - is that a reasonable approach? Total mechanical rookie here. Thank you!
