Default Found a surprise installing PSE...
...a 32mm socket lodged behind the stock muffler! I bought it with 40k miles and the previous owner did most of his own work so I wouldn't be surprised if this thing has been rattling around for a long time. Sure am glad there's an inspection cover down there!

On a side note, the PSE is amazing, everybody should do this.

Clearly someone dropped the socket when doing an oil change and just said yolo.

Yep! On anything else I would just assume its gone forever. But I would probably go after a socket this giant...

LOL I would send the 32mm socket back to the orig owner with a note: "You dropped this"
