they make special service tools for removing them... not sure if you can rent them or what, but i know they make it way easier, of all the ones i have assisted in removing i have never not used one of the special tools... it looks like a hollowed out maglite ;)
 






Yeah, they rent tools to do it, but just using a really big crescent is easy too.
 






Just turn the rack to one side, and get a big adjustable wrench and a piece of pipe, that's all i ever use to remove or install them.
