Let me guess...one of the two bolts on the underside of the front end that attach to the radiator support?

I had to use a pair of vice grips while the car was on jacks to pull down on the bolt as I turned. Once I cought a good thread it came out.

That was just a socket wrench for me. Tried using a pipe for extra leverage?

Yeah that bolt is easy for me too...try pulling up on it with a wrench as you turn it.
