I think my 88' is a T-55. I would have to look when I get home.

Get the T45, T50, T55 and be ready to work hard on it.

It's a T-55. I'm 100% sure of it, I did mine a couple of weeks ago. C'mon JD717, it's not that hard... it's why God created impact wrenches.....

Slide a piece of pipe over a breaker bar for more applied torque. Works wonders .

Geez, just eat your Wheaties! Lol jk. I wouldn't know, I use my dad's impact wrench. CB9M is absolutely right if you don't have access to an impact wrench.

oh yea, I forgot all about those. been so long since I've used one, thanks mainly to not having anything to hook one up to, like an air compressor, or anything.

you need a T55, also TORX is already plural so no need to add a S.
