| + | A company called KATAR makes a wrench specifically for the Evo lower rocker box bolts. Made in the USA. \\ | ||
| + | It's a reversible ratcheting box wrench with a deep well 7/16" socket. \\ | ||
| + | This allows for removal or installation of the lower rocker box hex nut bolts. \\ | ||
| + | It has a long handle and a short profile making it easier to get to the bolts. \\ | ||
| + | However, it's best to only install the bolts to snug, then use a 1/4" beam type torque wrench to finish bolt installation. \\ | ||
