ratcheting swivel wrench. the first time i did it was with a socket wrench...and it was also the LAST time. it will literally take you 20 min just to get 1 of the back bolts off and another 20 to put it back on. you'll be happier if you get it. 13mm if i remember correctly. good luck

Okay, I'll go look for one at the local stores. Any ideas where I might be able to get a hold of one?

If not, it looks like i will have to order one :(

should be able to get it from both of these posts. disregard the trimming of any bolts as that was a mistake on my part during the R&D. if you have any questions...never mind, i know you'll ask.

Alot of what is in those guides seems like trial and error.
So, asking a few specific things:
I read that the issue with the wrong bolts shipping with the kit is now fixed? We get some longer bolts, right?
I also read about people leaving the back bolts out. Can the back bolts be installed with the 25mm insulator, and if so is there a trick to it or a tool that people have found to be the hot ticket?
