Re: Exhaust Manifold Recommendation
I don't like wobble extensions, and the ones with sockets, they
give me the feeling I about to loose some skin:

Re: Exhaust Manifold Recommendation
Those don't work on manifolds Bill. He is talking the 'wobbler'
extension that lets the wrench and extension come in on an angle.
A normal extension has a square end, like |_|. A wobbler has a curved
end like this (_).
