Red and Krey are on target. If you don't have access to a 3/4" drive socket set, use a SIX-point 1/2" drive socket, not a 12-point, and put yourself in a position to land safely when the socket, the breaker bar, or the bolt snaps! Make sure the socket is ALL the way down on the bolt head, even if you have to hit it with a hammer. An impact wrench (air or electric) could ease the task, and LOTS of penetrating oil is a MUST. If that bolt snaps off, you'll likely be hunting a new clamp, as getting the broken end of that bolt out of the old one may take more time than a drive to your nearest tractor graveyard. Also, try TIGHTENING the bolt a little, then go back to trying to loosen it. A little heat on the clamp from a small propane torch may help. I saw my Dad loosen a stubborn one years ago by putting a big punch on top of the bolt head and smacking it hard with a hammer. Vibration seemed to be the key.
