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.
