2002 Upper Control Arm Driver's Side Rear Bolt

[350xfire]

Hey guys, I am dreading the re-installation of the driver side upper control arm due to the one bolt by the master cylinder. How have you guys tackled that one? I was ablw to remove it about a 100th of a turn a a time while cursing about 2300 times.... I really wish to not be this angry while assembling it...
Thanks

Hi.
I feel your pain. I used an 18mm gear wrench. Still hard, but a bit easier.
Good luck!

I used a ratcheting wrench, only took minutes.

one of these. Think harbor freight. but you have to buy the whole set. they make them that the open end ratches too

OK, I do have some but I didn't seem to be able to use it there. I will try again.
Thanks

Well.... heck, you guys were right again!!! It works. I could only get about 3 clicks back and forth but it was way better than a standard combo wrench.
Thanks
