Trouble removing front driveshaft
I've tried searching and haven't come up with anything. I am having some issues removing the bolts on the driveshaft at the t-case side. Do I have to remove the crossmember in order to get to them? I can't fit a socket of any kind on them, can't get any wrenches on them for the life of me. Am I just incompetent? Any words of advice would be great. Thank you

I find the only way is with two wrenches one hand coming in from behind the cross member the other from the front.
break all the bolts loose before taking any out makes it easier
The first time can be a pain if they have been in for a long time

thank you for the help. I was finally able to do it. I don't think they have been removed since 1987 haha. Was under there doing some gymnastics moves to get them even broken loose. Had to run to the hardware store and buy some double closed ended bent wrenches if anyone know what I am talking about.
