Default Can climate control motor be R&R 'd??

Made a trip to Bradley Int Airport last night and the heater was cooking, I mean cooking my feet no matter what temp I put the climate control on.
I know its that lower pass right hand duct motor stuck again. I usually have to remove the glove box and give it a push and it starts working again.
Used to get stuck in the cold position then I readjusted the linkage and it worked for a while.....now this.
Is it possible to remove and work on it or is it a PITA????

Valve (Air Mixture)

REMOVE OR DISCONNECT

1. Instrument Panel (I/P) compartment (glove box)
2. Heater duct
3. Air mixture valve lever
4. Air mixture valve through heater outlet INSTALL OR CONNECT

1. Air mixture valve through heater
2. Air mixture valve lever
3. Heater duct
4. I/P compartment

It'* really nice to see that the first step is not "remove entire dashboard" like it does with the 92-99 instructions. It seems like it can be serviced through the glove box. Strangely enough, this would be the first failure of a sub 92 air mix valve.

I know its easy to get at but I still couldn't figure out how to get it off.
I even tried one at the bone yard and couldn't get it off....?
