Help - Steering Rack Bolt Removal!

I am trying to remove and replace the steering rack/rack and pinion on my '97 Avalon. I am trying to remove the main bolts and cannot figure out which tool to use? I've loosened the sway bar and can push that out of the way, and can get a socket onto the bolts head but cannot figure out a way to get the wrench onto the socket - no room? Any suggestions? Maybe a swivel/wobble, but given the rust on it I am afraid I will break it. Any ideas will be appreciated!
