G2 Swing Arm removal

Is taking one of the swing arms off as simple as removing the nut and sliding out that long bolt? Am I going to have bearings falling out all over the place? I’m trying to change the cv boot and I got the tire off and shock off and unhooked the sway bar from the swing arm. I just want to know what I’m up against pulling this rod out of the arms and if I’m gonna pieces flying everywhere. :tools1:

Or do I take the nut off and slide the arm off?

Thanks
