Thanks... I have a couple on the way now. Looks like a I get to treat myself to a new wrench.

Axle Bolts arrived (I never buy just one of a small part... you just never know). A concern I was fretting while waiting on them arrived has proved to be true. The bolts are 65mm long... My axle has moved out of reach. Axle bolt won't even touch the axle. My idea raise the car then take a M10 x 90mm bolt and enough washers to close the gap after significant thread engagement... and try to draw the axle back into reach by turning this longer bolt and advancing the threads. The washers will keep the bolt head from moving so only the axle can come towards the hub. I am hoping to avoid taking the suspension apart. Once I get it to move, I can put the real axle bolt back on an finish the job. Opinions?

Drawing the axle back in place with the longer bolt worked. Got the proper axle bolt in place, road tested. Tracks light was off immediately and remained off. ABS light cleared after the self-check at 15 mph. Looks like this one is in the books. Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
