Tap the bar a little and see if it moves in just a little to free it.
Then put a hose clamp on the end and try prying it out with a large screwdriver.
Or make a puller jig like Ron suggests.
You want the bars out so you can inspect/redo the paint and lube the splines.
Before you re-install the spring plates, open all bolts, lube with anti-seize, then place the smaller plate in the middle of the larger plate (Eccenter bolt in the middle position)
Then adjust height by applying the 40/44 spline principle.
Now you can go to a shop with 911-experience and do a 4-wheel alignment plus corner balancing for around $300.- (Well worth it!)
I found that doing all the preliminary work like lube and height plus leaving the eccentric bolts in neutral allowed for an easy alignment and CB.
