[ST] Frame Sliders

OK. So I'm using the cold weather to do some "winter projects" on the bike. The first is installing frame sliders. So I received my frame sliders from SkyKing, but I'm having an issue with the install. I'm trying to get the T-55 torx bolts off (man are those things tight). So I've got them turning, but the nut on the back side is turning as well - so they are not loosening. I can get a wrench on the nut on the back side, but there is no way for me to generate enough leverage on both to loosen. I did think about leaving the wrench on the nut, turning the torx bolt, and then letting whatever the wrench hits brace it - but that sounds like it could lead to trouble...
Anyway, how did those of you who have installed these do it?
Thanks in advance,
Matt Heyer
