Changed my plugs

i just changed my spark plugs out in my 93 4.0 to bosch platinums and it only took me 20 minutes
i dont get why people say you have to take the inner fender off and the tire?

it's the 4.0L SOHC that the inner fenders are taken out to make it easier. there's a camshaft in each head, and the heads are alot wider thus taking up more room compared to your pushrod 4.0L OHV.

Come change mine and you can rethink what you posted.

Took me at least 1 hour maybe longer total that's with all the cussing and screaming I did
