That's only good if you can raise the car that high. Even on jack stands. You have to go through the top.

Me too. Use to be a ASE Master Tech. I've done from the top, from the bottom, through the fender well, through the grill.

Just a question. And bye the way, I agree - great write up by jmroy6.

Having just seen this, is this an isolated or rare incident, or is this another potential chronic problem with the Z?

I did mine from the bottom with a chain wrench and breaker bar. That is what
I have always done with crank pulley bolts that you can not get an impact on.

I couldn't get high enough with my jackstands to go through the bottom. If i had a lift, no problem.

LOL, I did it. It was a pain in the butt but nothing out of the normal.
