Question on the plug removal and install? I have a shock absorber running right in fron of one of my plugs and can never seem to get at it. Any one have this problem and what is the solution? Tired of having a mechanic do them.

It is the steering shaft. I have had good luck with a spark plug socket and a wrench on some. With my Bravada, I use a sparkplug socket and a wobble extension and have no troubles. You can remove the sheild on the steering shaft to gain some extra room.

Thanks. I will give it a try this weekend hopefully. That "steering column" has some sort of orange rubber surrounding it. I will have to check it out tonight.
