Default Spark Plugs 97

My nephew has an F-150 4.6L?. The last plugs are quite a way in the back, unreachable with a rachet - they're under the window area.

How do you remove these?

Not sure about the 4.6 but on the 5.4 you need a couple extentions and a universal, and its a pain in the ***** to do.

yea the best way is to use about two feet of extension with a U-joint in there somewhere.

also you may need a flashlight, creeper, mirror, chainsaw, ice pack, case of bud lite, video camera,

or a gullible/broke friend
