I'm thinking you have the drum on the tail of the tranny. If this is it, you will have to remove the linkage, pull off the drum and remove them from there. You may even need to use an impact if you can't get to the backside. I have one at home, I'll take a look when I get there.

It's definitely hard to get to, but an open-end wrench will fit in there. Don't remember if it's 5/8 or 11/16... If not, a pry bar/screwdriver will keep the nut from turning just enough so you can back the bolt out. Worked on mine. While you've got the tail apart change the trans' rear oil seal since you don't want to ever do this job again from under the truck :P
