lots of grunting and straining

I've heard a heat gun helps, but I wouldn't do that...they're on with about 80 ft lbs...

when you put them back on make sure you use locktite as well. Not only are they 80 ft-lb but they are loctited from the factory which makes them that much harder to take off. Same thing with the crank bolt.

DON'T use the red Loc-Tite - you won't get them off without a torch next time if you do
