If you are doing HFCs as well, I suggest soaking the bolts down with liquid wrench 24-48 hours before. This is much easier if it isn't your daily driver. I put my Z up on jack stands several days before and sprayed the bolts down several times a day for three days. From there I used several extensions and an impact socket. My son was under the car holding the socket firmly on the bolt while I was up top turning the breaker bar. Both came off fairly easily. I was actually surprised. I've been told they came off that easy because my car had low mileage.

If you aren't doing HFCs, you won't need to deal with them at all.
