    Would be a good idea to have a sparkplug socket and allen key as a backup incase the inpacy doesn't take them off so I will bring one along. Also a spreader tool is more then a bonus, it is a necesity! Or you can go the getto route and tap a hex head in and turn it, but I hear some aftermarket strut towers are wider and even need a penny used with the spreader to get it to open enough. Nothing a big hammer won't fix though

    I've got a full socket set, a big hammer, and a 4ft crowbar. Surely we'll be OK, but still open to the possibility of borrowing the proper spreader tool. Looks like I'll probably be moved back in on Sunday, so I'll try and make sure the garage is cleared out for next weekend.

      This is starting to sound like a demolision team here. Is there anyone in the club that has this spreader tool? From what I have read & gathered is that this could make the job a real breeze compared to the other route.

      Why dont we start a new thread asking fo rone of these, then we can post about this in there rather than jacking this thread?

      I am starting to look forward to this.
