i believe they are a 13 mm 12 point ...maybe a 12mm 12 point. i know i had to borrow a socket for it
if you have the right tool, it's not hard. i changed my entire driveshaft in 10 minutes.

They are 12mm 12 point. Easy to take off.

I've also found that flange is usually stuck, so you may need a pry bar to pop it loose. You want to avoid hitting the yolk ears with a hammer.
