How do I get to the back 3 plugs on this v6 to change them? seems to be no room anywhere to reach them.
Is there some other components that I need to remove first in order to get a wrench back there?

You can get to them from laying on the motor and reaching your hands around the back of the manifold or you can try and get them from under the vehicle.

Both ways have their issues so it is a matter of preference and what tools you have. If you have no lift then you may want to remove them from the top.

However, here is a video that will help with this:

I attached the info from the manual but that basically just says to remove the plugs so it is not much help.

Please run through this info and let us know if you have questions.

Thanks
