It's not too bad at all I talked to the dealer they told me how they did it with the torx bit but the wrenches weren't getting enough leverage with out bending. Once I got the ratchet and a cheater pipe it came off no problem and once its out the hard parts over. Mine was just way to tight and had to be a pain.... It's hit or miss like everything on a jeep

Went to re-position my pass side floor mat, and the carpet was wet. No big deal. Then I realized it hadn't rained in days, and I panicked a little. Crawled underneath and found a hole the size of a quarter. It isn't smelling too good. Probly shouldn't have driven through those puddles.
