They're both RH, I bought a cheapo tool from Empi a few years back that you whack with a hammer to loosen the nut. It has a provision for a half inch breaker bar to steady it, ideal for first timers. Two things to watch out for with this hub knocker: on 64-70 buses you have to watch your hubcap clips, you'll smash them off if you miss the tool, and on 71 and later buses you have to watch out for the flared fender well ao you don't hit it too! I've managed to do this on a couple of occasions when I wasn't paying attention. To put them back on I have a Snap-On 3 foot long breaker bar with the 3/4" drive 46MM socket mentioned above. Early bays are great because you can't overtighten them, on splits if you go over 270 FT pounds it puts too much force on the bearings in the reduction gearboxes and wears them out fast. Here is a link to a photo of the tool on a Vanagon website:
