Hemi Spark Plug Changeout

Hemi Spark Plug Changeout
Spent the afternoon giving some love to the old Ram.
Oil change. Throttle body cleaning. Front to back under carriage inspection. Etc.... AND
Changed out the 16 spark plugs on the Ram 5.7 Hemi.
I can say that anyone who has spent some time doing this will not have any want or need or desire to attend yoga classes in the near future and will need to goto church the next morning to own up to the associated expletives.
I could post a few pictures and open some discussion on the spark plug job if there is any interest or any questions about it.

Yeah, it was a fun time. Definitely not a job for anyone with physical challenges. There are alot of climbing up / down, contort this way, arch that way, lay like this, stand like that .......
By no means a difficult job. Access is actually pretty good. Just a lot of body repositioning and time consuming limited space for ratchet movements. As for tools, absolutely have to have a spark plug socket with rubber plug holder in it (or magnet), socket flex extension, and assortment of various lengths of extensions. I used a 3/8" set. A 1/4" set may have been easier to work with but perhaps not strong enough.
