this ^ also when you get the bolts out put some anti-seize on the threads so next time they will be easy to remove.

make sure you spay some pb blaser or something on the other end of those 13mm bolts. They stick through and protrude through the other end of the hub flange. If those are full of rust the bolt might snap off and then you'd have a real fun job ahead of you.

2xs.I always take a wire brush to them to clean them up before removing them.

Everything is already said but to get it all in one go. 13mm and 36mm, use PB Blaster and a cheater bar. It will make your life a lot easier.
