The lines are a bitch, part of what makes it a labor intensive job.
You may want to do yourself a favor and buy a cheap set of 'shorty' half-length combination wrenches, and a set of cheap standard length wrenches so that you can cut them in half, or hit them with a torch to put a bend in it to hook around corners to get to them all.
You will just have to work at them.
Getting them off is not too bad, but getting them back on is the big pain in the neck. Take your time, take some deep breaths.
Couple people have told me different tricks to get the washers to stay lined up with you put the banjo bolts back on, one that I like was super-glueing the washers to the banjos ahead of time so you don't have to wrestle them back on so much. Little spot of grease will do the same thing.
