Jim, thanks for the reply.

Well, yes, but also hoping for a miracle.....

You need to find a way to get above to hold the nut so it doesn't spin.
The challenge I'm having is that the nut is inside a boxed up area. It appears that Ford welds the nut in place, then welds the box to the frame. The are small holes in the box, but I couldn't reach in far enough to feel the bolt head to see if it was moving.

If it is a stripped but or bolt, sometimes you can get enough of a bite on the threads if you can somehow pry down on the bolt (instead of pushing up). If the bolt hasn't already started to loosen, there is probably no easy to do this.
This will be my next try. It looks like it loosened up about 4-5mm. I think I can get a large screwdriver or even the pickle fork in there while spinning the bolt.
I'm open to any ideas....
