The special tools you need to get it completed are:

1. BJ spreader
2. Hub puller (5lbs hammer)

You can get all of that HF; I rented mine.
You guys must be lucky in the southern states I've had a few here that the BJ spreader just wont budge apart. I've literally had to beat a few out, as the salt on the roads here seems to corrode things so well My own however (which never see's salt) came apart easy...
