REPLACING TRUSS-ROD NUT???

I have a '93 Fender Jazz Bass (Boner Bass) with a stripped out truss-rod nut. How do I go about replacing it?? Is it as easy as unscrewing the old one & replacing with a new one. Or are there more steps to it, such as clamping neck into a straight position before removing old nut. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
