I know a bunch of us out there turn our own wrenches when we add new goodies, fix something or replace something. We've all found that when we go to remove a nut or bolt, we find that some BOZO designed in insufficent clearance, or a bracket right in the way, or not enough room to turn the wrench.

A 15 minute job turns into a 1/2 hour job or longer.

What were you fixing/replacing/doing & what nut/bolt/whatever made you wished you had the designer's cahonies in your vice?

:
I just got done installing the 9000's on the rear. How about the lower bolt that runs into the sway bar & you have to either beat it out or drop the sway bar to get it out.
#ad
How about the upper bolt that is right next to the tailpipe hanger, tail pipe & right above the frame so you can't get your long handled 3/8" on it & have to use a short/thinner 1/4" wratchet.

He'd still be sitting on my vice with a rag stuffed in his mouth.

: And yes, my knuckle blood is still on the underside of the bed.
