yes this write up helped me a ton. did your method exactly. got all 8 out with no breakage. broke em loose with a wratchet, 3 squirts of pb blaster and 3 squirts of carb cleaner. onlything i would do is add more pb and carb cleaner.

As crazy as it may sound the easiest way to take the plugs out without breaking them is a 3/8 inch drive impact on a low setting the jarring will break the carbon loose and they will come right out just remember to put anti-seize on the new plugs and your good to go

I did this last week and I got 7 of 8 out.
I had to use the Lisle tool but thankfully it was on one of the forward plugs so it was easier to get at.
The tool is simple to use so don't fret if you have to pull it out
