Wonder if the threads have stripped. Try pulling lightly on the bolt and seeing if it comes out. Feel underneath as well and see if there's a washer or a nut on the other side of the frame, on the bolt.

The nut should be welded to the frame...chances are the bolt is stripped...you may need to push on the bolt from below while turning it. I have the same problem with the bolts on the bottom of my front end.
