@jerzone@techhub.social @groink@techhub.social @idropyou@beige.party Backing it up onto car ramps would help some.
I can tell you from experience and looks of your rust... even if you get that bolt out sliding the rack bar out might be difficult too.
Tried helping a buddy with similar situation. We got the pin out but gave up try to get the hitch to slide out. I still had some ideas (it wasn't at my place) but he decided to leave it as is...
Try finding a 6-point impact socket 1/2 inch drive. They're usually 6-point anyway. The HF breaker bar, also sold at some of the Borg stores like HD has decent reviews.

@lfisk@infosec.exchange Breaker bar was first thing I tried (sorry, all these details buried in first photo's ALT), just couldn't get/keep a good purchase on it, but also didn't have it jacked up so that might have helped.
