The rear axle has something called a diferential
,this allows the inner wheel to turn slower when cornering.
if you jack both rear wheels then they will free spin as you have found.
only jack one rear wheel and try turning the other
but be careful as the wheel on the ground will try to turn,possibly coming off the jack (chock the fronts)
alternativly you can remove all spark plugs ,injectors(Im not sure what engine you have)
and pour some neat diesel down each bore and leave over night,then repeat the first method before replacing plugs,injectors(this will help the engine turn as it is not under compression).
best wishes
