By the looks of it, I will probably put a board across the truck and lie down to reach the cap for replacement. Is there an easier way to do this?

Thanks

It is a royal PITA I changed mine a couple O weekends ago, by lying a quilt over the front and lying in there like you mentioned. It all still has to be done basically by feel!

OK guys, I replaced my cap & rotor ~ seems to run better, BUT I still have the shakin-me-silly at 45 mph and above. I found a Dodge Service Bulletin that states the shaking is caused by the routing of the wires ? Anyways, what have I got to loose? I'll try that today and let y'all know.
