I have a 2001 & think I used a 36MM deep impact socket.

AFAIK all years use a 36mm.
If you're in the rust belt, I suggest wire brushing them, hitting them with some pbblaster, then heating them a bit before using a cheater pipe and a breaker bar. I've had some that were so jammed they broke a 1/2" drive extension before I wised up and used some lube and heat to get them undone.

If they're that bad, just throw them away and get better replacements. Junkyard,
