Default Removing hammer on J frame

I need to pull the hammer on my 360PD in order to Bob it. I've disassembled a few K & L frames to do trigger jobs over the years but have never tore into a J frame. Since the main spring is different, I'm wondering if there are any other differences I need to be aware of before diving in. Any help (or links ) appreciated.

The insides are pretty much the same. Find a paper clip and cock the hammer all the way, hold it at that spot. On the hammer strut, there is a little hole, insert the clip in it and release the trigger.
The spring and strut now can be removed. Lift the hammer off fully cocked.

Childs play!
