I am attempting to replace the right front wheel hub on my 96 Saturn SL (the bearings are more rock-like than spherical) and my repair manual instructs me to use a "Wheel Hub Removal tool", which I don't have. Is this tool essential (e.g., am I going to have a major mess/difficulty if I don't use it)?

GM/Saturns, I just use a hammer...remove the axle nut, then the three bolts, tap it out...
