Default how the **** do i get that bolt out?

Hi Everyone

After realising that the balljoints on my felicia were shot i have crawled under this morning to check what size sockets etc i need to remove the lower arms. The problem i have is that the clamp bolt on the balljoint itself has limited access in that i cannot get a socket in there. I am also not convinced that this would come out very easily even if i could as the head of the bolt doesn't look very deep to prevent rounding off even after cleaning around it.

I know a fair few of you have done this job before so can you advise me on any methods you have used to overcome this as i have found this to be an issue with a number of bolts around the hub.

Any help would be appreciated
