what's the best tool to remove the nuts on the exhaust studs? I sure don't have it.

I run stub pipes which is supposed to make this easier but they are still in the way for my rachet.

At the shop we had some kind of universal joint sockets that kind of worked ok. Anything else?

thanks,
dr

sears, get the 1/4" drive(seems to be thinner walled) and use the 1/4 to 3/8 adapter. i used the 1/4 extension with the adapter further down. replace with 12mm nuts.

thanks kevin,

the simplest method is usually the best.

the 1/4" extension and socket worked like a charm. 10 minutes for all 4 stubs, took 1.5 hours just to get the headers off.

thanks again,
dr
