I use a 1/4" ratchet with a short 3-4" wobble extension and of course a 1/2" socket.
The wobble comes in when you are trying to put that rear nut back on.

Charley is 100% on this one,some type of wobble joint is the only real way. I put one on
yesterday, on the 61 that I am trying to sell.

By the way wobble extensions are often difficult to find. You can take a regular extension and make it a wobble with the help of a grinder or metal cutter. If anybody needs directions for this task please ask. I am happy to share how I did it.
