Adam,
Yes, it is that easy to change the hydraulic filter if you have a canister (spin-on) filter. However, there is one thing that makes for an issue when changing the hydraulic filter on some coaches, and that is fluid loss. If your filter is located on the bottom of your hydraulic tank, the hydraulic tank will probably drain about 3 to 4 gallons of oil when the filter is removed, so be prepared for a large fluid loss when removing this filter. Other hydraulic filters will loose varying amounts of oil, so be prepared to catch it and have new oil as a replacement. The latter Monaco design inline filters loose much less fluid.
Some coaches have a cartridge filter that is located inside of the hydraulic reservoir, so those are a little more work, but there is very little fluid loss when changing them.
Keep in mind that the hydraulic fluid has a change interval just like engine oil, although not as often. I changed my hydraulic system from Dexron III to TranSynd to extend this interval.
