[QUOTE="cleatus12r, post: 1479525, member: 18093"] The passenger side would be harder because of the downpipe, but I ran into this problem a few months ago on a guy's pickup. He had just bought it and it leaked oil like crazy from the rear driver's side plug. It was on a 1997, so the plug was pretty easy to get to with a ratchet.....except that the previous owner or mechanic rounded out the drive. I couldn't keep a ratchet or breaker bar in it as it would just twist out. So, in lieu of actually fixing it, the previous guy just smeared RTV on the outside of the plug. What makes people think that will work? I went to the hardware store and bought a set of pipe clamps for 1/2" pipe and cut to length wherein it would clamp the ratchet into the head of the plug snugly and the front edge used the front plug to clamp against. I had to remove the accessory bracket from the left front of the engine, but that's four bolts, the AC compressor, and the belt. [/QUOTE]
