I started to take the driverside front bumper off and got all of the bolts off but one. Is there a special technique or tool to get to this bolt head. I don't really want to take the whole frontend off to get to it. Thanx. Steve |

I just took mine off yesterday. 1. First place a small towell at the bottom just in case you drop something. 2. Use a small 1/4 inch rachet and 1/2 or 13mm socket. (The 1/2 seemed to fit better) 3. Come in from the bottom of the front bumper angle. You will get a couple clicks on the rachet at a time but it will come off. Once I read to come in from the bottom I had each off in 5 minutes. Hope this helps! Koko- Baltic, Ohio Mulholland |

Hey Steve, Craftsman's Ratcheting wrench (GearWrench) seems to work pretty well with its 4-degree swing ark. Just lots of strokes. Best regards, Larry Bowton |

With all but one bolt removed you can pull the bumper down this will make access to the last bolt much easier. |

You need a stubby handled ratchet, much easier. Especially if it has a swivel head. |
