AC tubing conectors seized to the tubings, any tricks w/o damage it? 200 1993

I'm working on the next item on my list while the car is on stand which is AC rebuild. When I was trying to disconect all the fittings and do the acetone flush, one of the connections is very hard to loosen, where the expansion valve goes into. I finally managed to break the two fittings apart w/o any damage. However, each of the fittings is still stuck to its tubing make it it impossible to turn them and get the two tubings apart. If it were any other part of the AC system, I would just leave it alone. I have to take this apart to replace the orffice (?). anyone has trick? Thanks. Erwin
