Hello all,

1961 Apache 10 pickup, rear end with 10-bolt circular differential cover. Shop manual procedure for removing rear axles (doing bearing and seal replacement) says to remove the bolt holding the center post that keeps the spacer block in place,. I have a lot of tools but nothing that can handle how tight the space is where the bolt is. None of my wrenches have thin enough walls to grasp the bolt because of the shape of the housing around it, and my low-profile 1/2" socket (with a breaker bar instead of a ratchet head to make it as compact as possible) doesn't clear either. What in the heck do I use to get that bolt out??

Thanks,

GW
