Default stuck bolt! argh!

The top front bolt of my assist steps mount won't budge! Any suggestions? I've used an 18" ratchet extension, normal ratchet, adjustable wrench and so on and it's not budging, been trying for like an hour and all it's doing is stripping it. and I'm the one that tightend it last!

WD-40 and wait a few minutes.

Are you sure you are turning the correct way?

Don't laugh we have all that before
