Default 96 Accord Rack removal question

I have the rack ready to come out and I'm having trouble getting to the power steering fittings. From what I see there's only a small inspection hole to access these lines. Is there another way to get to those fittings or am I stuck trying to wrench them a couple millimeters at a time? I was thinking about dropping the sub-frame for better access. Would that be a mistake?
If by chance this is the only way, how do I re-attach them? there isn't enough room for me to get my hand in there?
Thanks

Already checked the DIY and it tells me to remove the lines without informing me about how to get to those fittings.

Me too. Did you ever figure out how to do this?

I am able to reach down from the top but it's nearly impossible to maneuver or get enough leverage to do anything.

Thanks

If I remeber correctly there is a cover over the lines. From there either a good set of wreches or crows foot line wrenches....done...or am I remebering the 3rd gens.
