Assuming they are like Showas, don't forget the small Allen screw which locks them on!
Once they're out it's just a matter of overcoming the locking compound and corrosion on the threads" a combination of applied heat, a well bolted down vice with soft jaws and lots of sacking, a couple of mates to sit on it, and a large pair of stilsons with scaffold tube handle extension does the trick.
