that should be the correct direction. are you using a 6 point socket? and a good 20Oz or larger hammer should do it. you may need to get an impact wrench. if hitting the ratchet with a hammer does not loosen it, you're going to need heat. some idiots really do put them back on with red loctite. you have to heat the backing plate up to 500°F to soften the red.... Good luck.
