Default Installing Draxas Exhaust NEED HELP!!!

I finally got my exhaust system today, and im trying to put it on, but i cant get the old one off. There are 2 bolts stuck on there, by what i am assuming is the midpipe and the s-pipe. I cant get them off. The other ones took a little force, but other than that they came off just fine. I am using the same 9-16 bit the other ones took, but when i put force on it it just slips off. doesnt help it is in an weird place.

Any pointers?

i have used WD40 and that PB stuff that is supposed to be like 10X better than WD40.

The thing i find weird is that nothing will grip the bolts. It just slips right off of them. that is driving me crazy!

make sure its cold, spray wd40 between the nut and flange.

right sized socket with a long arm to have enough leverage.

take your time.
