What tool did you use to try and remove those plugs? When I did this mine were on there pretty good too, but I wound up buying a cheap 3/8" socket extension and using a bench grinder to make it fit the square plug hole (5/16"). Just put a long breaker bar on it and give it a few good raps, came right off for me. Some people said this might not be a great solution because modern tools have hardening coatings that would be removed, but hey, it's a $2 part and has lasted for me through several uses. It might be worth a shot.
