Yeah removing from the truck and flipping upside down is not going to happen. My installation is not as bad as yours. I chased all the bolts with a tap. Only one had issues. But I definitely won’t take the ring off again
As I said , mine was totally seized. The brake handle stuck. With a lot of twisting left and right, it freed up a bit. There is a ring around the m66 . It has two hinge and a long Phillips head screw to tighten and loosen . Under that ring is a felt strip. I think it lubricates the roller...

The nut (1) in the TM is. 1 3/16” (it’s probably metric, but I don’t have anything larger in my GMTK than 22mm )
The second nut which is more felt than seen is a 17mm. The bolt was...
