Coilovers seized need help!

Coilovers seized need help!
so i wanted to adjust my coilovers last night lower and found out that my rear coilovers are zeized (frozen), the front ones are fine. i have nex gt coilovers for 3rd gen and they are dampening adjustable.
any ideas anyone i tried usig pb blaster, and the air hammer gun and i got the bottom ring lose so i turned and adjusted that but the the top one ring or whatever u call it i cant move it at all.
i was thinking of taking the coilover completley out and taking it apart, knowing that the spring is not compressed it will be alot easier, im kinda pissed now because my front is slower then the back and looks kinda GAY!

you should be using a spring compressor tool to remove tension from spring-
otherwise you are fighting a lot of force!
the lower nut is locknut- top nut is the adjuster to move lower plate to change height
should also have a tool that allows you to pull the nuts opposite directions to loosen the locking, but any tension on the spring is your main problem
