i would give it a good soaking it plus gas a couple of times before going to do it to give youreself a better chance. split the ball joint then "undo" the nut.you will proplery have to hold the rod witha set of stilsons/mole grips.
wipers are straight forward but awkward, unless you need to remove the arms then you will need a puller.
heater moteris under the glove box 3 bolts and a couple of electrical plugs and its done.
