Post SPARK PLUG REMOVAL ON 5.4?

Is there a tool for reaching the pass-side firewall plug? I changed 7 of the 8 plugs on my wifes 5.4 when it hit 110k, just couldnt get to that last one? Whats the trick? I had everything off possible and socket adapters, but no luck.

It's really shoved back up in there isnt it?
You could try removing the radio and going in that way.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ford had a special tool fot it.
Probably called the 'oh boy don't we know to make money' tool.

Try going up through the oil pan it would probably be easier. or just take the wire off that one and have the first 7 cylinder.
