That's the only explanation I have for why a rocker cover bolt is placed at the back of the cover near the fire wall. There is NO room to work back there. If the bolt hadn't already been a little loose, I'd have never gotten it off.
And it's also very obvious that whoever designed this truck had no intentions of a short fat chick ever working on it. I can't reach JACK without a footstool. How dignified is that? I'm doing serious work on my own truck and I have to drag the kitchen stool out to the street just so I can reach all the bolts that need to be removed.
Of course, if one built a car that I could easily and comfortably work on, nobody could fit in it.
Anyway, I changed the rocker cover gasket today. Took me 4 hours and several colorful expressions to get it done. Saved a couple hundred dollars. And I'm going to need that money just to fill up the RV.
Now, I just have to figure out how to get the grossness out from under my fingernails.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
I'd have paid AND brought the beer to watch that!
It is behond undignified to be up on a foot stool leaning over the engine compartment with one's more than ample ass up in the air.
