PLUGS AND WIRES...REACHABLE?

[XLT_66]

Ok, i know all of you have prolly done your plugs and wires...but i was wondering how exactly you might get to the back 4 plugs on a V8. I can't even see them. Do i go under the wheel well...or do i just reach around and TRY to find a way to get to them. It is a mess in there. A huge tangle of wires to deal with. Help please....this is my first plug and wire job....so i am just now learning how to work on my X and stuff. Thanks in Advance.

I have V6 and I have to go under the fender. I removed the wheels and the underneath cover to get access specially on the passenger side. You have to be carefull with the fender cover. It is secured by some kind of fastener actually, I accidentally ripped mine and re-secured it with a plastic ties. An extension and an angled or bent socket handle will help a lot. It's going to be a pain to do this. Good luck.

I hate having to reach places like that with tools. I usually do all the work on my truck but when it comes to sparkplugs I've decided that I have better things to spend time on and I take my truck to the local service center. They only charge like 15-20 bucks for installing plugs.
