How to move checkout progress block to right?

Question

In magento , i want to move checkout progress block from right to left. I mean i want to show the checkout page as 2columns-right style.I have an extension at left side column which i don't need in checkout page. so, how can i manage it ? I have tried in checkout.xml by changing the reference name to right, but it won't work. Here is my xml code

<remove name="left"/>
<!--Change root template to 2columns-right.phtml-->
<reference name="root">
    <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/2columns-right.phtml</template></action>
</reference>
<!--use the right block-->
<reference name="right">

    <block type="page/html_wrapper" name="checkout.progress.wrapper" translate="label">
