Calipur Bracket Bolts.....So hard to come off

i was trying to install the new rotors. the front calipur bracket bolts are so hard to remove. i even try some WD40 but still no help. i even spend my whole body energy to remove them...

Any technique to remove those bolts??

I had the same problem...I used PB Blaster that didn't work so I used a craftman socket wrench and craftsmen adjustable wrench and attached on to the end, essentially creating a bar about 2 to 3 ft long...a little muscle and that should be more than enough torque to get it moving...watch your knuckles or they'll be bleeding when you literally punch the ground getting it loose..
