I'm working on refreshing the power steering system and have so far replaced all the hoses, rebuilt the pump and am replacing the hardlines. I'm having a HELL of a time backing out the hard line nut on the drivers side of the vehicle (not the open nut, that wasn't an issue, but the upper nut, with the rigid hose running through it). I've circled the one in the below image. Note: circled poorly. I've pulled the oil filter to buy a little space, but still don't have clearance to get at the 17mm fastener.
Does anyone have any experience getting that guy undone? Considering fabricating a custom tool for this due to the difficulty of access.
