Do I  need a 1/2" drive breaker bar to remove those connecting rods ?  The  
socket 
has to be pretty strong, but needs to be very 'thin-walled' to fit  in 
there, it 
seems  ?

Book calls  for 22-29 FT. LB.
1/4"  drive INCH POUND torque wrench at  300-320  will be fine and fits 
nicely!

You won't need a torque wrench to remove the nuts - Only to reinstall them! 
 Use a 3/8' breaker bar with a 12 point socket. That should easily clear 
about  anything for removal. You will need a smaller (1/4" size) for 
installation.
