10mm gear wrench or socket.....I use my leatherman to pry it out if its stubborn.But you can grab and twist too.....but have a couple JIC bandaids for this method.Takes about 7-10 min to change.....a little longer in the dark and nobody to hold the flashlight.

...and what would the tools for the cps be? ha...yeah, if you've seen my posts on the vac pump issue- yes, I now know a spare belt is a very good thing to have LOL!
I LOVE my CB! I found a new-in-box Cobra for $30 at Big Lots, so it was one of my first additions. usually I just put it on ch 19 and see what I can pick up
most places we go wheelin it's a requirement anyways
we're headed to Danville, PA, flat-towing a Jeep and a bunch of parts, getting a new trail rig built! probably 6500-7k lbs. my friend's trying to talk me into a programmer before then...this is his thing, so he's paying for all my fuel...but I thought in all fairness I should tell him with that kind of weight, going uphill, I usually only get 10ish mpg :/

Tools for CPS change: standard set of sockets, ratchet wrench and a small (3") extention. I didn't use an extention when I did mine the first time and I think it might have made it easier.
I guess it's time for a trip to Big Lots.

finances might prevent actually taking a spare cps 
my mechanic assures me she'll be fine...but i do have a to do list for the weekend: oil and filter, air filter, fuel filter...i have a napa, advance, and auto zone all close by- any of those better than the others?
looking at my owners manual they seem like straight-forward things to replace...but i'm challenged so we'll see lol
