Cool. You know what we kind of encountered. My torque wrench was a little long for the amount of space we had. Not a big deal though. We got it done eventually.

On the WRX, you can't get a torque wrench in there on the inner nuts unless you pull out the axles. I just hung two good open end wrenchs off each side and wedged my jack handle between them and yanked on it

Other tip... use 6 point wrenches or you will fail.
