1/2 inch extensions, 1/2 inch swivel and three foot breaker bar will get it done. If you can get the socket seated give it a swift push forward and that bolt will snap making everything smooth sailing from there on. If the top of the head is rounded or stripped, get yourself some Irwin nut/bolt extractors.

I would soak it in pb blaster and do all of the above before I considered pulling the subframe. Make sure you have a buddy hold the socket on the bolt if it keeps slipping.
