This socket is required to comply with with the torque check of the flange bolts on the tailrotor driveshafts.
It is a real tight area to get into.
Some have suggested to try a torque adapter but there isn't enough clearance.
We have also tried a 7/16 wobble socket and that bombed out too.
This is the locally fabricated work aid that the manufacturer recommends.
