I have tiny hands, and use ratcheting box wrenches, and do it without removing the hard-lines. But if your hands aren't tiny, taking the hard lines off doesn't take long, and would make it MUCH easier.

I had to replace my GPs when I bought the car (it was a Texas car, so the PO didn't even realize that three of them were out, car started fine without them), and replaced with Autolite brand. Big mistake. They all died in a few months.

Replaced with Bosch 80006 (9.99$ at autozone), and they've been great ever since (about a year). I did NOT ream the holes out, since I didn't have the GP reamer at the time.. I'll make sure to borrow one for my next GP change, whenever that is.

peace,
sam
