You may also want to carry a tie bar end puller. I had to remove the
tie bar to get a good swing at the hub flange bolts to get the hub to
come out. If you want to avoid the trouble on the trail, you could do
the job at home and put anti-seize on everything to make sure it comes
out easily when needed.

I have managed to get clearance by cutting the steering side to side for
each. The bottom one worked easiest with the steering cut so it's an
open swing from the front with the BFH.
