The squeak was fixed by a little grease on the bolt, but because of the lack of space, I could not cinch down the bolt with the required T40 torx bit To fix the clicking. Well today I attempted to tackle the problem.
I used a 1/4” T40 bit with a tiny ratchet, but couldn’t get enough leverage to move the bolt.

It was a real pain getting everything lined up and in place, but once it was done, it seems to have solved the problem. I’ll only know for sure in the coming days
