I have all of the o2 bolts out and just need to remove the nut to get this damned thing off. Anyone in the north Austin/roundrock/pville area want to lend a hand?

the nut in the back.. one tip for me.. remember its the opposite direction as all the bolts. So you'd be pulling it to the front of the car. A nice 14mm ratcheting wrench (gear wrench) helps too

This too!

There doesn't seem to be enough room to get a wrench on it. Do you have to remove the o2 heat shield for that?

I figured it out. The flex wrench wouldn't go over the nut because the o2 heat shield wasn't allowing enough clearance. I went out and bought a 12mm wrench, hosed the heat shield bolt down with PB and popped it off. After that a 14mm flex wrench took the nut off no problem.

Thanks guys.
