hey, I've had this same problem with my track bar... there's a slot to access the nut, you just have to turn the wrench sideways (perpendicular to the face of the nut) and slide it through the slot and then you can turn the wrench (paralell to the face of the nut) and then get your wrench on there. It's a pain, but you can do it.
yea i saw the slot but could not get it on the bolt for the life of me lol. ill try it again soon, it was crazy hot out and underneath the hot jeep i just wanted to quit lol

Alrighty. Got a few things done in the last day or two. Went doorless its so nice. Cut the hinges. They're easy to get off but kinda hard to aim to put them back on by yourself. I put a cb in and tucked the antenna wire and also wired up a PA system to it so I can tell at people haha but here's some pics. Oh and also made a flagpole. A very redneck flagpole out of some pins and a metal broom handle that I took the ends off and drilled some holes into but it works and that's all that counts lol and also remounted my streamlight

Used an angle grinder.
