I need to take my crossover pipe off, but I can't figure out how to get to either of the flange bolts on the passenger side. What's the correct combo of tools?

look again they are in the open just requires a little bit of extension
a swivel and a couple of long extensions
That's what i used. You have to kinda work your hand up there by those bolts and kinda hold the swivel on them while you are taking them off. Its a real P.I. A., but it's doable. A word of advice, coat the crap out of the bolts with penetrating oil before you even start, It'll make it ALOT easier.
Oh yeah,
When you go to put everything back together, get all the bolts started before you torque them. Try to do both sides of the crossover pipe evenly.
Hope this helps

X over boltz
Brent, the lower bolt may be inaccessable if the pass. motor mount has sagged. The lower bolt is REAL close to the fuel return and tank vent lines on the inner top edge of the frame, and a dead mount allows the pipe to get down so close the socket won't go on... Ask me how I know!!
