Question 1999 XJ8 3.2 Air con condenser

The captive nuts that along with the bolts that attach the Air Con Condenser to the rad are no longer captive and I am unable to remove the leaky condenser.

Has anyone found a method of holding the nuts secure enough to allow the bolts to the unscrewed.
I am trying to avoid removing the Radiator as that means draining the coolant and detaching the transmission oil coolant pipes

They have been soaked in WD40 on a daily basis

Thanks Bill W.
