yeah, the process the exact same for both of them.

if it's just getting the nut off that's a problem, then you just need the good ol' breaker bar + 3' extension and some muscle.

put your socket on it, and like steronz said, use a bar that goes on the end of the socket wrench to add basicly a 3-4 foot handel to it.

I used my hydro jack handel, and then just stuck it on. You could probbly use a pipe of somesort just laying around.
