Those are gear wrenches. Found at your local tool store. GearWrench is a brand that makes them. Very handy tool for any toolbox!

Not the Gear Wrench, the tool that's holding the end link from turning while unloosening the nut.

The end of the bolt looks like it's either square or flat on two sides, I was just wonder if they made a special tool for those applications. After doing some searching I found this http://www.amazon.com/Lisle-20400-Un...pr_product_top , for $10 I'm buying one.

I just paid attention to the video again and it is just a regular 3/8th's ratchet in his hand. Looks like it might be an older model fine tooth Craftsman or Easco ratchet. If you watch closely towards the wheel well, when he pulls his hand away you can see the rest of the ratchet handle.

He is using a boxed end ratchet wrench and a regular ratchet and socket on the end of the bolt.

It is called a square drive socket. Shock sockets are round with a flat on each side. However what is shown is a square on the end of the stud. Same idea as a shock socket. It prevents the stud or shaft from rotating while you are removing the fastener from the end.
