Just replacing your pads should not have caused the pedal to be spongy... Something else must have happened. As far as bleeding the brakes, you are going to have to get the bleeder open. If you damage the bleeder, you can get new ones from the parts store. You just have to make sure that you get the old bleeder out. If they are being a pain, put some penetrating oil on them and allow some time for it to set in.

I did a run through of the replacement on the rear axle of my old 2000 Bravada. The brakes will be the same in the back. Have a look at THIS THREAD.
