I am trying to remove a Delta Leland Kitchen Faucet.
]2
When I try to loosen the bolt from the bottom of the sink, the entire fixture spins. I can't get any leverage to turn the bolt. If I have someone while hole the faucet and I turn the bolt, it still spins.
Any way to got this off with out using a grinder? There is a little bit of space at the base of the faucet, so would prying off the fixture be an option? Thanks!

That thing is so hopelessly corroded that the only hope I see is to use one of the following:

Any type of hammering, prying, twisting or chiseling you try to do is liable to either bend/break your sink or damage the finish if it is a porcelain type sink.
