@CLTRovers Hey, just wanted to mention that you don't need to remove the center console. You do need the 13mm torque adapter you show and ~18-24 inch extension to go into the torque adapter. I did it with a 3/8s drive. The torque on those top two bolts aren't that bad. I used the torque adapter on the top 6 bolts of the 8 besides the bottom two. You just offset the torque adapter to where you will be able to see it. Put the torque adapter on the extension before sliding it in then you can use your fingers to place it on then break it off. It was my first time, and while I agree it is not easy, it isn't too bad.
yep, When I did mine I was using jack stands so access is not very easy. I lost patients and figured removing the center console was more work but easier access. If you don't remove the center console and do everything below I would recommend removing the rear drive shaft and the center bracing so the transfer case hangs at an angle slightly so you can get more access to the top bolts.

what tool did you use to program the transfer case?
Nanocom but GAP ID tool can do it also...before I programed it there was a clunk every time I stopped the LR3, afterward no clunk
