No press needed unless you have to switch aftermarket studs over. You do need a stout torque wrench (164 ft/lb IIRC) and it's a big honking Torx on the inside. You can do it without dropping the arms but it's a little close - think long extensions and wobble. Sounds like you'll be dropping it all anyway though.

Watch out for the thin flat washer deal when you break the hub nut, pay attention to which way it's in there - it's slightly dished.
