    Default 5.3L V8 Spark Plugs

    How hard is it to change the plugs on an 06 GXP? The ones on the front look easy but I cant see the ones towards the firewall. How hard are they to access, what components will i need to remove to get to them?

    The v8 is tight. What we do on the v6's is disconnect the dogbones ( you only have 1) and use something to pull and hold the motor more forward while the car is in neutral so the motor will rock.
