As for Hamster's comment, the crank arm bolt should be tightened to torque specs and no more.
Couple quick questions:

First, I'm assuming that it shouldn't be ridden in this shape?

Second, which tools do I need to use to get to the bearings? I've looked at Park Tools website and this is what I'm finding, but not sure if I really need all of these to get to the bearings:

BBT-30.3
HHP-2 or HHP-3

Or, do I not need any of those at all? I'm able to remove the non-drive side crank easily, but didn't want to go any further than that last night, not wanting to screw anything else up.

Thanks for the help!
