Any Torsion bar removal tips?

Trying to get the old bars out, new PST 1.03 bars will be here Tuesday.

I've got the car supported on stands front and back, under the frame so suspension is hanging. I've backed off the adjusters all the way so they are completely loose. I've removed the retainer clips at the back of the bars. But I cant seem to get these suckers to move.
Any ideas?
