??? about taking an outdrive apart

I'm trying to take apart a Mercruiser outdrive to replace the boots
which have cracked. It looks a good bit like this one:

I had to go buy a 1/2 inch allen wrench to remove part #26. They're
very tight, possibly rusted, and I haven't broken them free yet. Is
there anything else holding them, or should I get a cheater bar and
apply a lot more force to break them loose? Any suggestions about this
job would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Add a little heat (torch) if you can.
