I'm looking for advice or BTDT's on tightening the inner CV-joints in the front of a 5kt. From the top, the engine mount brackets get in the way, and from the bottom, the subframe is in the way. I was able to get at a few of them by using a 12" extension, but the bit doesn't stay centered as I tighten and I can't get the right torque w/ my wrench (59 ft-lbs. I believe). The problem is also how to keep the wheel from turning. I don't have a lift, but is that what I'll end up needing? TIA.
