Default I "T-slotted" mine, but now they have internal hex heads.

Only the drivers side head, wont clear the ABS, with studs. You have to make a guide pin from the old bolts by cutting the heads off 2, T-slotting them, install them at opposite ends, install gasket, install head, then install studs one at a time. Removing the 2 guide pins as well.

T-slotting the head studs and guide pins allows you to install & remove them with a large flat-blade screw driver.

One must be resourceful! ;O)

Default Like I keep saying, I'd prefer to borrow it from a forum member than waste money on something I'll..

...use once. If no one has one, I'll buy one.

Default I'll probably buy one in a day or two, you can borrow it when I'm finished...

If you can wait.

Default me ryan, me!

I'll have to look at home for sure but I have 4 triple squares so I would think that one will work for you.
