Hi,

Do you have the transfer case removed? Also, when I do these, it is from under the vehicle on a lift. Several extensions and a swivel socket are used.

Since this has the 3.7L, you may be able to reach them from the top as well. I know if you remove the transmission dipstick tube, it helps open up the passenger side, so try that if you already haven't.

I attached the directions below from the manual. See if anything helps.

Let me know.

Joe
