Removing wheel sensor

Any body have good secret to remove the abs wheel sensor on the front of a 1996 Bronco. Probably has been in place since factory. Been using rust remover and twisting/prying with no result. May have to get more violent to get it out. Would like to just clean up seat area without having to replace after damage. Thanks

Stupid question but you did remove the 2 bolts on back side of the knuckle?

I just got done pulling the spindles last night and the sensors are much easier to get to now.

Second that. found them the hard way. Really messed up the sensors because of my own stupidity. Replacement bolts are hard to find. Had to go to a bolt and fastner store and used allen wrench bolts that were the same size. Now it is easier to get them off.
