Midpipe Install - Header Nuts

I've got everything off except the lower nut on the passenger side header. How do you get this one off????

I'm using swivels & extensions, and nothing seems to grab.

And a lot of cuss words. "Motherf*cker" is usually the most effective, followed closely by "piece of sh*t".

RE: Midpipe Install - Header Nuts

It was tough - I probably spent 70% of my total install time on that one nut. Ended up using a medium depth 15mm socket to aswivel toa 10" extension to a breaker bar.
