Not sure which ones you are talking about but maybe some heat.? Heat them up with a torch, turn the nuts on part way and bang them out. Must be corroded/rusted to center bushings. Maybe some penetrating oil?

thank you! It is the bolts on the shock and on the top sway bar(I think that is what it is called, sorry i'm new kinda new to snowmobiles) I figured it was a bushing that is rusted onto the bolt so I put a ton of liquid wrench on it and im letting it sit over night.
