I just did this job a week ago. I removed my heat shield, made things a lot easier and well it pretty much crumbled apart when I bent it out of the way. The hardest one I had to deal with was next to the rear carrier bearing on the passenger side (carrier bearing nut on the pass side was rounded off, go figure). My only problem working on my car is, if it involves taking off rusty bolts its a 95% guarantee that the bolt will snap off, which they all did except one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif. I had to beat the passenger side with a flat head and hammer to pop it out of it's hole to the lever.
EDIT: I to the OP, talking about the one next to the carrier bearing that I just mentioned? Going to be easier if you unbolt the carrier bearing from the car, need a deep well socket, I think a 14mm or 15mm size. As I stated I had a hell of a time with that bracket, since the nut on that side of the bearing was already rounded off. I ended up having to just beat the crap out of the bracket to get the cable off.
Hell, I just fixed my car, hoping I fixed it's oil leaks, but nope still leaking and officially going to join the JSB crew now. Time to start tearing down the engine.
