You’ll have to cut the bolts off in order to detach the running board. Another way to get out the cage nuts is to cut a hole in the backside of the rocker panel access them that way then weld the whole back up after you’ve installed new nuts. pretty common for these years of Fords.
Am doing this myself as well.
