I assume you're talking about the upper mount bolt. (I also assume you've disconnected the battery negative cable, right?)

- get the car on jackstands, high enough to allow you breaker bar leverage under the car. Use great care and test - rock the car on the jackstands before crawling under it!

- connect the 6-point 1/2" drive socket (forget size) to a universal

- use multiple 1/2" extentions and run them alongside the transmission, extending all the way to near the back of the transmission

- attach a long breaker bar to the extension at the back of the transmission

- ensure that the socket is well seated on the bolt before you attempt to break it free
