Do you have AC hoses in the way? Tight fit. The allen key does fine as you only have to hold and position the bolt.

I have a 1/2" drive socket bit that fits if I use my breaker bar not a ratchet.

14MM or if desparate, 9/16". Not enough room for a socket bit, just get a short l-handle.

Howdy,

Can someone tell me what size hex key is needed to remove the upper control arm? It's bigger than 12mm and 1/2 inch, and smaller than 17mm ;) And it appears I'll have to order it online as none of the local shops seem to stalk that size range.

Thanks,

Joel
