Finally feeling up to work on it.

I can't find a socket to get on the front big enough to pry with. I think it is a 1-1/2 inch. If I knew for sure I would order one on Amazon.

Started to think about pulling the head and not sure how to get the studs out.

My problem is the truck is in pieces and it doesn't make sense to start putting all the other parts on if the engine won't turn. On Monday when the parts places open, I will look for the right socket.
