I posted this tip in a former life




I just changed my front tire Tuesday, and the 5/8" Sparkplug socket used backwords worked great! Thanks for that tip (I did a search and saw your earlier post)! I couldn't find a 12mm hex socket locally, so I bought a 12mm allen wrench at Sears ($8) and cut about an inch off with a dremel, then used that in a 12mm socket to use the torque wrench. I got that idea somewhere else on the net. I did disconnect the speedo cable as per the Haynes manual instructions, it was not a problem to take off or put back on. On another note the Metzeler ME880 is so much better than the OEM Bridgestone that I wish I'd replaced it sooner.
