That's when you break out the extensions and swivel sockets. :D

When I was changing the clutch in my '84 Cherokee, I could NOT get to the top trans bolts, but I found that once I had it up on the hoist, about four feet worth of extensions and a swivel socket were just what the doctor ordered. :lol:

They actually make a special extension just for that. It's about 3-4 feet long and is 1/2" drive on one end and 3/8" drive on the other. Works great for doing shocks, too.

Yep, had one of those in auto shop, but all I had were a bunch of shorter ones!

Scraped it and bought this 95 caprice, small block 265, only 81000 on it when purchased, currently 94000, one owner car. Needs a good tune up and repaint. Got a set of 14x7 deep dish wire wheels to put on in the spring, gonna color match the spokes to the car

What's with all those old Mopars lurking behind your Caprice? Looks like they are forming a pride to attack it.

Full Borla exhaust, Eibach springs (which lowered it 2 inches all the way around), 17 inch rims. Will be adding a cold air intake very soon.

What a shame. A car must have character.
