Exclamation Coilover installation issues!

I finally decided to install my tein basics today. started around 2, and didnt finish after 7 hours. I'm having a lot of trouble in the back with removing the strut bar assembly, the screw mainly. The nut at the bolt turn at the same time, and i dont know how to loosen it because the back of the bolt is hidden.
And in the front and back, the 17mm bolt that loosens the suspension yolk is stuck on pretty good, how do i take it out?

Spray them down with PB blaster, WD-40, or similar product to loosen them up

yea lube em up and something that will remove the rust. sometime the lubrricant alone wont work.

you can almost try impacting the bolt/nut using a hammer or something
