Please help the front suspension issue

I want to replace my front suspension, and the guide I follow is http://www.pelicanparts.com/techarti...eplacement.htm. But in figure 10, I can not remove the 13mm bolts. Because when I try to remove the bolt, the wheel housing is moving at the same time.
Could you please help me with it? I'm in hurry because I'm on the half way of replacing the suspension.
Thank you.

Are you attempting to change the shocks? Or are you trying to change the ball joint?

If you are just replacing the shocks, those bolts dont even need to come off
