Yes. I found that helped break the bolts loose so much easier but the hard part is that they are mechanical locking nuts so once you get them loose initially, they will stop again after a turn or two which is when you could snap them.
Anyone who is doubting installing HFCs themselves; just get a good breaker bar and extensions and you will be fine. I did them on the garage floor and I had limited mechanical experience on this car. Just commit yourself and you will find it is not as hard as some make it out to be.
