Unhappy Tight squeeze under the hood!

Here’s one for the record books. What in the world was the engineers at Mercedes Benz thinking when they put Torx bolts on the back end of the power steering unit? I’ve tried to get them out with a 70 ft.lbs. impacting air ratchet wrench, and they won’t budge! There's no room to put a breaker bar and turn it, so what should I do?? Anybody ever had that problem? I have the two at the top out, but the bottom ones are hard to get at. Please help!
