When I replaced mine, I screwed around with a wrench and cheater bar for a while. After a couple hours of sweat and cussing, I gave up and got out the ol' gas axe. I cut the bolts with the torch, popped out the springs, and had the new ones back in in 30 minutes. And LeRoy is right - get new retaining cups...
