Try from underneath. I might be saying this because i have a body lift on mine. You could always put a body lift on, the gay it leaves makes it a breeze to change the sparkplugs.

that kinda changed my mind on a body lift. i thought it was harder to change them, but i guess from the bottom its easier.

When i bought the thing and changed the plugs yes, doing it from up top is quite difficult. I ended up almost sitting on top of the engine. Now that I have looked, you can get in right behind the wheel well and it looks way easier.

I can't even blame the gay thing on a typo. I guess i need to pay more attention.
