You dont need a hacksaw. It shoud be new enough to pull appart. Loosen the clamps, wiggle it off. Mine came right off.

Crawl under awhile before you actually intend to do it. Spray every fastener (like the clamps) liberally with WD40 or some sort of penetrating oil. Then stand by to do lots of wiggling and yanking.
