The issue with the 4x4 is the cross beam being in the way. I was able to break the nut loose, but there's no way to get a puller onto the thing, much less get the arm off, unless you pull the gearbox out of the engine bay... I don't think a 2wd is as difficult, I believe there's room to get the arm off on them.
