Caliber Bolts 2000 Expy

How do I remove the front caliber bolts on my 2000 Expy? I tried to use the right hex drive but it just stripped it. The new ones I got have an Allen wrench head.. What ever happened to the pins they use to use? any help on getting these blots out will be great..
Thanks

Vise grips. Push the rubber boot in so that you can get a good bite on the metal with the vise grips. The bolts come out CCW. Replace Caliber bolts.

thanks a lot svchareta, I did just that. They came off real easy with the vise grips. just wish they would use regular bolt heads like they do on the back calibers. I ended up changing fronts and rear. I read all the other threads about horror stories with the front calibers, but mine came off no problem. again thanks for the advise.
