Default How to Torque down driveshaft bolts

A torque wrench or a ratchet really doesnt have enough clearance to really tighten down the bolts that hold the drive shaft to the axle. I used a 12mm 12point wrench and tightened it as much as i could, but with such a short wrench i doubt it added up to a whole lot of ft/lbs. Any suggestions?
