Spark plug socket
Which is the best one for my 3.2 SS twin plug, bottoms easy, but the tops have become more of a challenge, more wires to deal with,I’m getting older. Would like a thinner socket. Thinking grinder at this point
Any great ones out there Thanks All

Use the stock tool in you kit.....if u dont' have it, get a snap on shorty ratchet and articulated extension.....they will bury u with it.

+1 for the stock tool all the way, the springy one. Nothing beats it period.

I'm a big fan of the Gearwrench 80546. Attached swivel extension, magnet - makes it easy to install and remove.

I welded a 3in craftsman extension to a swivel to a sparkplug socket, works GREAT.
I have the factory tool, I still use the one I made

Spark plug socket
All who have used the factory tool all sing the same song.
It’s a marvel of design, simple, odd, reliable, perfect. Nothing works better IMO |
