What size wrench do I need

I usually like them about 5'-2" all the way up to maybe 5'-6".
That makes it easier to hold them and guide them lightly around the dance floor.
Smaller, and I wind up stooping down to them.
Taller, and I'll admit it, I feel inferior.

OOOPS silly me. I see you wanted to know about a wrench.

I thought you said WENCH.

My bad............................................

36 mm socket and Big crescent or Crowfoot open end is a good investment..

I found a 1 7/16 inch crowfoot with a 1/2" drive on EBay pretty cheap.. it works well with a 1/2" drive torque wrench on the nut side while I hold backup with the 36 mm socket and 24" breaker bar.

:agree: 36mm, and a the breaker-bar! :thumbup:

You already know it's a close fit between the nut and the muffler. No room for a socket. I find that this works well on the nut, and you can use the 36mm socket on the left side.

This also has a fitting for the torque wrench. Don't forget to adjust your torque value setting on the torque wrench to account for the increase in length if you use it.
