Hi Hugh,

For me, this would be the same procedure as changing out a hub unit. I 
usually just jack up the car, remove the break shoes & associated 
hardware. Then , remove the bolts holding the hub, cut or open the band 
holding the inboard side of the boot & pull it out. All this is done 
without getting under the car & should take about 30 minutes.
Of course, while your in there grease the axle spline & inspect the 
u-joints.
On assembly always take care not to over tighten the hub nuts.

18" of fresh snow on the ground & blizzard conditions---- OH JOY, OH JOY 
:-(
