Have these bolts ever been removed before? If your truck is like most, probably not, so they are severely rusted. Get a can of good penetrating oil like PB Blaster and spray the threads of the bolts. I also used to use a similar product made by CRC, and it worked pretty well. I've never had any luck with Liquid Wrench, for some reason. Let it work for about 1/2 hour, re-spray them, and then try to remove them. In the most severe cases, it may be necessary to cut the bolts off, if possible, and replace them with new ones. Good luck!
