Only thing that I can think to do is to thread 2 or more nuts onto the brake boss threads and then tighten them together with high torque. Then grip this pair of nuts with a spanner and try to undo to the brake caliper bolt.
...or grip the brake boss bolt in an axle vice with soft jaws or an inner tube as protection.

Does anybody have any idea what I can do with this. It’s a v-brake calliper and the brake boss. It would appear that the v-brake bolts are too long for the brake boss as I can’t tighten up the bolt, but I only worked this out after I’d gone too far and now I’m unable to undo the bolt and it just unthreaded itself from the frame.
I don’t have any tools narrow enough to get to the flat part of the brake boss to get a grip on it.
It would be good to save the boss and the calliper if possible?
