Wheel Cylinder Removal

Hi guys,

 

     Just a quick question here.  I'm trying to remove the rear wheel cylinders for replacement and want to be sure that I'm on the right track.  I'm working on the drivers side upper cylinder at the moment. Am I correct in my understanding that the nut attached to the adjusting screw (bolt) needs to be removed in order to remove the cylinder?  I'm not seeing any other way for the cylinder to come off.  Please see photo.  The nut is rather frozen on the bolt, and I've been soaking it with Liquid Wrench.  If I'm on the right track, any helpful hints on breaking the nut free? 

 

Thanks!

With a little encouragement, I gave it a little heat, a little more juice, and a little more pressure. The results were quite satisfactory, thanks Keven.
