David, if one is slightly seized on, try hitting it the other way for a few wacks to break it loose, also check the threads and which way they are going as I had a "XXX" Cobra replica I was helping on that actually had a splined thread that was incorrect for the side it was on and while tring to remove it, discovered that sorrid fact (this is the only time I have seen or even heard of such a thing)...After you have checked the threads and which way they are turned/cut, spray a little WD40 on the threads and give it time to soak in, then work it back and forth a bit but hitting the ear both ways if you have to...

Hope you find this helpful.

Sincerely,

Bill S.
