Universal joint removal problem

What type of socket is used to remove the bolts on a differential axle assembly mating flange? I'm trying to change a universal joint but the bolt heads are not familiar to me. I thought they were male torx bolt heads but the sockets I bought wouldn't fit. It's on a 92 F150, 302, 2WD, E4OD.

Funny thing, I went through the same thing on my bronco II. Turns out all you need is a 12 point socket or wrench. Good Luck, Dave
