Stock SJ ride plate bolt

It has been a while since i have done this, and this should be a simple process. What is the best tool and/or method for removing the stock bolts on the rear of a 1995 SJ ride plate. I have a new one to install and don't want to butcher anything in the process.

Wow those are some weird looking bolts. Appears to be a security style bolt, don't think those are stock. Juat remove everything with hand tools and reinstall with hand tools as to not risk damaging the inserts.
 
You don´t have to remove the big "washer" to remove the rideplate. the washer is screwed into the rideplate, you could fine tune the level of the rideplate with them. to remove the rideplate you only have to take the 6 M6 bolts out... if that makes sense

Do I remove the adjusters to access the bolts securing the ride plate? I assume the bolt head is behind the large adjuster with the two holes.

no
to remove the plate remove all 6 of the 10 mm bolts

I feel like a real dumbass, but how to I get to the two rear 10mm bolts. I don't see them, I assume they are behind the adjusters. I just want to be carful considering they have been on for 20+ years.
