Hi guys,

I'm planning on replacing my water pump, thermostat, and engine mount soon. The Pelican article mentions the use of swivel u joint sockets. Do I need swivel sockets to get to certain bolts down there, or it's possible to do without them?

Also, I was looking up u joint socket sets, but couldn't find many, only found impact swivel sets.
