Default traxxas shock rod ends ?

I have a grave digger, so they are ultra shocks. I just got some fuel line to use as shock limiters but can't get the rod ends unscrewed. I have tried pliers wrapped cloth so I don't mark the shafts. No luck, they spin, just like in my hand. Am I missing some little trick?

Thanks

Paper towel might grip the shaft better then the cloth, it's worth a try at least. Also is there any shock oil on the shaft? that stuff is slippery
