MTF change- How do I get a torque wrench on the filler bolt?
Please forgive my stupidity-
I tried many combinations of extensions, universal joints, shallow and deep sockets, and I can't get my craftsman torque wrench in a position where I can actually move it to tighten the filler bolt to-spec.
Do I need to take the wheel off, is there some trick to it, or do I just need to get a short torque wrench?
TIA

I'm using a full-size 1/2" wrench.
I guestimated 33 ft-lbs for now, since it's not supporting anything I'm not too concerned. I have an extra crush washer so next time I have the wheel off I'll re-torque it.
I was hoping there's a magic spot somewhere in the undercarriage that you can get a wrench in with the car on ramps.
Thanks!
