I am still trying to learn how to do all this internet stuff. I figured out how to find all my old posts. I finally removed the bracket without taking off the HB. I went to Sears and they sell the sockets that slip over the bolt head and then you use a box end wrench to turn it. It only comes in a set and it was like $28 to 35 not sure though. I also have found some knock off brands of the same sockets at Auto Zone.
Sorry it took so long to respond

I was thinking that maybe taking the themostat housing off would give a little room to turn a box wrench an 1/8 turn or so.
thanks
