Not enough Swing eh? Try removing your inner front fender…and approach it from the outside with your front wheel off…Possibly your motor mounts disconnected also… Get at her man…approach the issue from the outside… get out from under that hood. Sometimes things needs doin that way.
Okay I got my freeze plug installed! I ended up using a piece of 1/2" steel rod 2’ long to get out under the exhaust, and all the other stuff. A couple of whacks with a 3 lb sledge and it came out. The only part that sucked was I was doing it on the ground after getting 1/2" of snow on Saturday. Underneath the truck was dry but that was it. So I got soaked! But worth doing it myself as I saved myself a chunk of change.
Thanks for the help.
