Reply to "Need to Wire tie the ring gear bolts"

[Is there enough space to get the torque wrench and socket inside the case keeping the differential mounted in place? I'm thinking 1/2" Torque wrench with socket. Could always modify a socket as well.]

Sort of. We use a 1/2" torque wrench with open-end-style 'crows-foot' sockets. I doubt if a 6-point or 12-point cylindrical socket could be cut down enough to fit like you're thinking. A cut-down 3/8" socket even with U-joints & extensions would be clumsy to use in this application. Crows-foot socket sets are cheap and work well.
