For starters you need a set of Flare Nut Wrenches. Without them you WILL round off the edges of your fittings. If this has happened-then you need really strong Vice Grip pliers.
What's the trick here-a lot of strength and patience. Be sure to use a wrench on both fittings while taking apart and reassembly between the steel lines and the flex lines.

Oops-I forgot Grasshopper :) you might using a bit of Power Blaster or CRC to loosen things up a bit. And do not forget the retaining clips.
Sawzalls are very useful-I hate cutting pipe by hand too-large pipe that is.
