Default tb crank technical issues or am i just scared

Torsion bar bolts pb blasted...check, truck front end off ground...check..go to turn the bolts I can see they move a lil bit both directions but I'm scared ill snap them. Do I need to use a breaker bar of some sort? Or do I need to clamp on the key and get pressure of the adjustment nut? If i need ti release tension is there a guide for when using the ball joint tool method* haven't found a write up with pics using that tool. Thanks

I've done a couple and used a breaker bar both times, never had to put undue pressure on them to get them to move, but enough that it would have been a b*tch with a standard ratchet...
