O.k. guys I went to the local parts store yesterday and got some new plugs and oil for the truck (`06 4.0l 5spd. fx4 lvl 2). Woke up this morning and got right at it gapped the plugs and started changing them, two hours later all i have changed are two plugs on the passenger side of the truck. The front and middle. Anyone tell me tricks they use to get at the DAMN back plug. It doesn't look like can move the air conditioning canister or any of the hoses. I tried getting at it from the top and bottom still no luck.
 
i had to trim my inner fender to get to it. just trim the bottom edge in an arc with a box cutter til you can get to the plug
 
The passenger side gets changed through the inner fender, the drivers side you do from up top. Not that hard.
 
I found out that after I put my body lift on, that i can get in there very easily, but yeah you have to go through the inner fender and up top too. good luck
 
I only havve a 1" body lift and I can see all three plugs on my OHV.

the spark plugs aren't located much differently on an SOHC

I did mine with a swivel or two and an extension. I've found if something is a pain to work on in automotive stuff, grab an extension or two and do it from farther back....worked for me so far.
