I did the same job with all new spacers and bushings last year on a Phazer 2, it's the same setup. Some of the bolts were also real hard to remove. I had to remove the whole assembly. I used lots of Deep Creep and a hydraulic press to remove some of the bolts but they all eventually came out for me.

Sorry, they don't show up in the picture and the link doesn't seem to work. If it's the part that connects to bolt 37, I believe it was held on by a pinch bolt. It may off needed a bit on convincing (hammer) to come off. This was last year and I've only done one. I'm sure there's guys on here with more experience with these.

Lots of penetrating oil and a hydraulic press when they are badly seized. I also found that the threads on the bolts will often deform so I usually leave the nuts on and backed off flush with the end of the threads until the bolt starts to break free with the press.

For part #42 there are two nuts, one on the front and one on the rear (#48 & #49) that have to be loosened off. Then there is an allen head set screw (#44) that needs to be backed off. Loosening off nuts 48 and 49 takes the pressure off the set screw. The set screw also has lock tight so if it does not come out fairly easily with an allen key I use a 3/8" hand impact with allen key socket.
