The forum has the really annoying feature of showing related threads at the bottom, and it's really easy (esp for a new arrival) to not notice after scrolling through a new thread that they're now looking at an old thread. You can turn that off in your profile.

So in 9 years nothing relevant has been posted on the subject. THREE cats. Asinine to begin with & one has no use. Only the bad mix of DNA from Chrysler & Daimler could create that. BTW....Use 18-24" 3/8 extension, not 1/2". Universal & 15 mm short socket.
